For Maggie Rayburn --- wife, mother and secretary at a munitions plant --- life is pleasant, and predictable. When she finds proof of a high-level cover-up on her boss’s desk, she takes it --- an act that turns her world upside down. Pretty soon, Maggie starts to see injustice everywhere and her bottom drawer is filled with what she calls “evidence.” For Penn Sinclair --- Army Captain home from Iraq, Ivy League graduate and reluctant heir to his family’s fortune --- a hasty decision to launch a website exposing the truth about the war, has disastrous results.
