In the not-too-distant future, as a final response to terrorism and crime, the U.S. government plans, in secret, to broadcast the American Peace Initiative signal making it impossible for anyone to knowingly commit unlawful acts. To keep this from the public, the government creates a distraction, installing a new currency system using digital charge cards. Enter Graham Bricke, a career criminal never quite able to hit the big score. In a final grand scheme, Graham intends to steal one of the new charging stations, skip the country and live off of unlimited funds for the rest of his life. Before his plan can come to fruition, however, the media leaks news of the anti-crime signal one week before it was to go live... leaving Graham and his team with only a few days to turn the heist of the century into the last crime in American history.
