McLaughlin International is a subcontractor for the Department of Defense located in Albuquerque, NM. The routine contracts pay the bills, but the one that McLaughlin's cofounders, Tom McLaughlin, Kristen Dahl and Rusty Langston, were most interested in was the highly classified project code named "Marvin." When DOD lost faith in the viability of the project they dropped the funding. McLaughlin found a way to continue the project in the private sector. DOD has kept covert tabs on their progress and discovers that the company has managed to complete the project. DOD decides that the technology is too advanced to remain in private ownership and wants it back. They'll stop at nothing and Tom, Kristen and Rusty must outwit the professional spooks to retain property that is rightfully theirs.
