Science is neutral-so we can only judge its stewards. Chemical Alliance's executive team immediately recognizes the lethal implications of the cloaking formulation if unleashed in the public square, but they also agree it could save the lives of a lot of kids in uniform. Pressured by shrinking reserves, Peter Holiday, the firm's CEO, and his CFO, Susan Krammer, give the CIA an arm's length demonstration. It backfires. Their frantic escape from Langley leaves a Deputy Counsel dead in their wake. Neither could have forecast that an uncharted science would pit the CIA against the ruthless First Lady and earmark the Inventors as a terrorist organization. When Peter bows to Susan's plea to help the police gather evidence after a friend's child is brutally murdered, they are flushed from cover. Dirty Trust is a tale of friendship, betrayal and survival. If set to music, the score would pound like Ravel's Bolero.
