2019ril. "Mi chiamo Rachel Klein e fino a pochi minuti fa ero una madre qualunque, una donna qualunque. Ma adesso sono una vittima. Una criminale. Una rapitrice. È bastato un attimo: una telefonata, un numero occultato, poche parole. Abbiamo rapito tua figlia Kylie. Segui le istruzioni. E non spezzare la Catena, oppure tua figlia morirà. La voce di questa donna che non conosco mi dice che Kylie è sulla sua macchina, legata e imbavagliata, e per riaverla non sarà sufficiente pagare un riscatto. Non è così che funziona la Catena. Devo anche trovare un altro bambino da rapire. Come ha fatto lei, la donna con cui sto parlando: una madre disperata, come me. Ha rapito Kylie per salvare suo figlio. E se io non obbedisco agli ordini, suo figlio morirà. Ho solo ventiquattro ore di tempo per fare l'impensabile. Per fare a qualcun altro ciò che è stato fatto a me: togliermi il bene più prezioso, farmi precipitare in un abisso di angoscia, un labirinto di terrore da cui uscirò soltanto compiendo qualcosa di efferato. Io non sono così, non ho mai fatto niente di male nella mia vita. Ma non ho scelta. Se voglio salvare Kylie, devo perdere me stessa...".

È un'esperta nel suo campo, ma adesso sa qualcosa che non dovrebbe sapere, e i suoi ex capi la vogliono morta. Subito.

Quando le viene offerta la possibilità di mettersi in salvo, in cambio di un ultimo lavoro, lei accetta, ma nel momento in cui si prepara ad affrontare la sfida più dura, si innamora di un uomo. E sarà una passione che può soltanto diminuire le sue possibilità di sopravvivenza. Mentre tutto si complica, la Specialista sarà costretta a mettere in pratica il suo "talento" come mai prima. In un mondo in cui i rapporti di fiducia mutano di continuo, dovrà muoversi con ingegno e astuzia per proteggere se stessa e l'uomo che ama.
