Living in the suicide shadow of his FBI-man father, second generation FBI-man Jason Wells accepts a covert assignment to infiltrate an organization known as The Group that's targeting a U.S. senator. With his own death faked, Jason Wells comes back into society (undercover) as hoodlum Jason Black, soon beneath the tutelage of trained "Group" assassin Quinn Simmons, a.k.a. The Silencer; but, with his cover later blown and plans to keep the senator safe compromised, Jason finds himself in a tangle of lies and mixed loyalties, wondering who to trust and what to believe.
