A trauma patient's dying request of AJ Docker leads him and his retired police dog, Banshee, to embark on their latest adventures. Partnering with his patient's sister, they embark on a quest to uncover powerful research that could alter the course of humanity. Shadowy enemies pursue them in Washington, D.C., in a race to capitalize on the information, while a new threat reveals itself at Doc's hospital. A greedy corporation is attempting to take over the emergency room, threatening the quality of healthcare nationwide. Doc has to fight a billion-dollar company to save more patients' lives as well as the careers of competent medical professionals. Banshee has his back as he battles on all fronts.
