At his untimely death, Philip Royce was working on a story he kept safely stored in his computer. Since he was the sole possessor of the access code, when he died, the story was assured of being laid to rest as well. Michael, whose foundation has been called in to assist in the story's research, and Lauren, Royce's daughter, decide to solve the case themselves. Lauren is kidnapped and taken to an unknown destination where she's gagged, tied up and drugged -- before being miraculously rescued by Michael and the Knight 2000.
