Quantum computers are the next big thing. A router capable of allowing those computers to talk to each other, securely and near instantaneously, will be worth billions of dollars. As the first "Quantum Router" nears completion, the lead inventor is murdered. When the surviving creator doesn't believe the story of his 'suicide', she hires Trace Conner, a master Ninjutsu instructor, for protection. The simple bodyguard job quickly evolves into non-stop action as kidnapping, murder, and high-tech treachery chases them around the world after the enormous prize.
