Casey Singleton, responsable du service qualité du constructeur, est aussitôt chargée d'une enquête technique. L'enjeu est important : l'accident pourrait remettre en cause une promesse d'achat du gouvernement chinois. Espionnée, menacée, Casey ne va pas tarder à découvrir que, dans le monde des affaires, les turbulences les plus mortelles ne sont certainement pas que climatiques...
