How unlucky can the Bleich family be? Four out of five murdered on the same day ... the obvious link being the Heathcote Diamonds, reputed to be cursed. SSA Ellie Conway is not having a great time either: she is shot when all she wanted was a good cup of coffee.

NCIS Director Doyle's sister is abducted by an international hitman who proves to have intriguing connections. The appearance of Mac's doppelganger is a profound shock and Mac's ghost resurrects Elllie's smothered rage. CIA Officer Jonathan Tierney surfaces too often for peace of mind and then her daughter, Carla, raises the teenage stakes causing Ellie's psycho-prophetic alarms to go into overdrive. When FBI Director O'Hare, NCIS Director Doyle and NCIS Agent Noel Gerrard go missing at the same time, Ellie recognizes there are malign and subversive forces behind these 'random' events.
