Meet Caroline Madison, a CIA operative who is deep undercover running The Agency, the premier talent agency in Los Angeles. Using her Hollywood clout, CIA training and a network of special agents posing as actors, paparazzi and beyond, Caroline masterminds the latest form of propaganda: mass entertainment distraction. By secretly manipulating her celebrity clients, Caroline generates entertainment scandals that distract a gossip-hungry American public from political affairs. Caroline successfully navigates her dual identity until one day, her personal life is thrust into the limelight and she becomes a victim of her own design. As her two worlds collide, Caroline struggles to salvage what’s left of her splintering identity in order to beat the system that created her.
