Tax attorney Linda Able is an unhappy woman trapped in a dishwater-dull career and clinging to a dying marriage. While she leaves her office for air and better coffee, she runs into Myrna, a worker from the abortion clinic below her firm, who gives her a large envelope she refers to as her "will." As Linda is returning to the office, her life is saved by a faulty traffic light, and she watches in horror as the abortion clinic is destroyed by three massive explosions, taking the lives of everyone in the clinic and the members of her firm. It appears to be domestic terrorism, but Linda, her savvy friend Jordan, and a rogue FBI agent soon discover that the devastating act was the beginning of something far more Linda has been a pawn in a plot designed to bring a superpower to its knees.
