Homeland Security Agent Phillip Broyles leads the U.S. Government's official investigation into The Pattern. A master of navigating the halls of power, Philip Broyles could easily have risen through the ranks of government without ruffling feathers. But Broyles prefers to push limits and test boundaries. When unexplainable events began to occur around the globe, he makes it his mission to find out why.

Now he has assembled a special team to look into these events, led by Agent Dunham with the help of the father-son team of Walter and Peter Bishop. Managing this team will test Broyles's political skills and make him a target for those who do not want the truth revealed. Broyles's goal: to find out who or what is behind these mysterious events, and to stop them from spiraling out of control.
