The 6:20 Man is back, deployed to a small coastal town in Maine to investigate the murder of CIA operative Jenny Sikwell, who possessed sensitive national secrets. Her death raises urgent concerns about security, as her devices contain information that could jeopardize countless lives. The U.S. government turns to ex-Army Ranger Travis Devine, whose military training and analytical skills make him ideal for high-stakes investigations. Having previously uncovered a major financial conspiracy, he approaches this case with confidence, but small towns often harbor deep secrets. Devine must navigate the tight-knit community of Potter, where locals are wary of outsiders. Key figures include Dak, Jenny’s brother, who is working to revitalize the town; Earl, the retired lobsterman who discovered Jenny’s body; and Alex, Jenny’s sister, who has her own troubled history. As Devine interacts with the residents, initial answers lead to more questions, revealing a complex web of secrets and motives. With a long history of deception at play, Devine struggles to discern who he can trust, all while facing threats to his own life as he races against time to uncover the truth.
