After witnessing the horrifying murder of her friend Tom Haley, Mallory Lowe, a cautious university mathematics professor, must emerge from her cocoon to become the gutsy and unpredictable woman she's always dreamed of being. Running on the guilt of a past family tragedy that she blames on herself, Mallory is determined to find Tom's now-missing daughter. Following the clues in a 300-year-old equation left by Tom, Mallory's search propels her into the tangled threads of a ruthless corporate entity known as M bius, bent on controlling the world's most precious resource: fresh water. Along the way, Mallory is joined by CIA agent Lane McKenzie, who used Tom Haley as an operative to infiltrate M bius and expose their corruption of government officials. Now he's using Mallory to do the same, but without her knowledge. Sinking deeper into a pit of questionable ethics, he shadows her as she is propelled along a perilous journey from the southwest United States through the breathtaking landscape of Switzerland and into the inner workings of a massive hydroelectric dam in Turkey. Caught between M bius' inner circle and a renegade associate, Mallory solves the riddle of the centuries old mathematics equation-only to discover something more ominous and deadly in the process. Mallory must reignite her mathematical mind and again put her life at risk if she hopes to stop M bius from unleashing this looming threat.
