When a five-year-old girl is kidnapped from her birthday party, Don and Terry lead the investigation, but must rely on Charlie's help because the girl's father, Ethan, is also a mathematician.

While consulting with the NTSB at the scene of the wreck, Don learns that this tragedy is one of a series of recreated accidents involving railroad negligence. As is the pattern with the previous train wrecks, an undecipherable numerical code is left at the site, which Don recruits Charlie to solve.

Don's investigation leads him and his team to a dangerous standoff with their suspect, who has surprising ties to the railway system.

The case is made more difficult for Don when his former lover, now a Secret Service agent, is assigned to it.
