Lyle Harrelson is in a jam. He's been laid off, the bills are piling up, and he can't even afford to get his sick daughter to the doctor. Then his old college buddy Carl calls. Carl has a lead on a new job with great pay, solid benefits, and an immediate opening. Carl pounces on the opportunity.

He has no idea what he’s getting into. His co-workers are secretive. His boss is a stone cold bitch. And when he wonders exactly what it is Kaiser Development Systems does, nobody will give him an answer.

Carl calls him again, this time warning him to stay away from Kaiser.

Moments later, Carl is dead.

Lyle wants to know why. He tries to learn more about Kaiser: who they are, what they do, what the strange data on the servers he manages is for. But he's made a mistake.

And then the real trouble begins.
