Erin Pulaski teaches ballet for fun, but her real job is as a private investigator. And if she isn't careful, her latest job may get Erin arrested for breaking and entering. Her client, Professor Kender, has asked Erin to look into why the production of the drug Culovort has stopped, forcing colon cancer patients to use Eloxium, an expensive drug not covered by insurance. The night after Erin's reluctant criminal activity, a body is found in the same park Erin ran through the night before, involving the FBI. She has to play her cards right when the FBI Agent in charge of the murder case, Bowie Richards, arrives at her door asking a favor for his daughter, a ballet student. Erin decides she may be able to gain more information on her own case by helping the agent out.

As a personal favor to a friend, Special Agents Lacey Sherlock and Dillon Savich are checking on a strange occurrence happening at the residence of Senator Hoffman. The Senator, seeing a white apparatus floating outside his bedroom window, is unsure what to do but needs full discretion. Savich is known for having experience with unnatural events, but before he can apply his knowledge, Savich is sent to Stone Bridge to assist Agent Bowie Richards on a murder. As the murder case progresses, the FBI finds a connection to a certain drug company located near the park where the body is found. None of the agents believe the recent break-in is a coincidence and push to investigate, leading one agent to a personal betrayal.
