In Los Angeles, brothers Gabriel and Michael Corrigan navigate life 'off the grid,' shaped by their mystical father's stories and intuition. Following his violent death, they remain hidden from the surveillance networks of the modern world. Meanwhile, in London, Maya, a tough young woman, struggles to lead a normal life, concealing her true background. Trained to fight since childhood, she belongs to a lineage tasked with protecting the gifted. When summoned to Prague by her ailing father, she discovers that Gabriel and Michael are in danger and need her protection. However, her father is brutally killed before their meeting, and his last command sends a relentless pursuer after her. As Maya travels to California to find the brothers, an extraordinary chase ensues, leading to a climactic battle that will unveil the secret history of our time.
