Dan Stagg is an ex-military man who has fallen foul of the military's ''Don't Ask, Don't Tell'' rules. Tall, muscular and in his late 30's, he had a successful career in the US Army and rose to the rank of Major, until his lover, a younger male soldier, was killed in Afghanistan. In the aftermath of his lover's death, Dan was busted by the military authorities because he refused to keep quiet about the nature of the relationship. Since being back in civilian life, Dan has been finding it very hard to adjust - he has few personal ties, no job, and is broke.
But then Dan is offered a great deal of money to protect the young male "secretary" of a powerful real estate developer, who has been threatened with kidnapping. The young man in question is vain, shallow and, Dan is forced to admit, very attractive - and it's quite clear that his idea of 'protection' includes sex. But Dan quickly realizes that something strange is going on: he's being used as a shield for a much more sinister operation, and is forced to choose between the easy money and sex that his new job offers him, and living up to the ideals of service and duty that he embodied in the Army. Dan finds himself playing a dangerous double game which will take all his combat skill and military training to survive.
