Storyline

As a result of the shooting of the FBI agent in her last case, Brenda finds herself on paid administrative leave. While sitting at home, her squad is slowly being dismantled by Cmdr. Taylor. While Taylor investigates the murder of Malik Fara, Brenda is offered an opportunity by her old intelligence contacts to have her problems disappear if she can solve the case and identify a leak in intelligence. Fara was likely killed by a terrorist organization who may be in possession of 20 lbs. of plutonium.

Quotes

Commissioner Andrew Schmidt: Odd, isn't it, how our enemies never change. During World War II, they recited "Mein Kampf" while shoving people into gas chambers. And during most of my professional life, they quoted Marx and Engels while they shot you in the back of the head. And now, they misuse the Qur'an. Same people. Different books.
