Synopsis: A riveting thriller from the screenwriter of Twin Peaks and The X-Files.
LAPD homicide detective and single mother Alex Delillo knows the risks of the job. But when a series of explosions is detonated by a serial bomber and Alex’s teenage daughter is kidnapped, she discovers the catastrophic stakes as well. The bomber’s next plan: to unleash his incendiary powers on live TV. No one can stop him—because no one can find him. What he’s igniting in Alex is more than a contest of wills and a race against time. It’s white-hot rage. And a mother’s revenge.
