Seven years after Luke Gallagher disappeared during an undercover assignment, he returns to Baltimore carrying intelligence about a dangerous terrorist plot and uncertainty about whom he can trust. Private investigator Kate Maxwell has never stopped searching for him, but his reappearance does not erase the secrets and trauma separating them. The Chesapeake Valor team races to prevent an attack while trying to determine how Luke’s long absence connects to the current threat. The series finale combines terrorism investigation, friendship, faith, and long-delayed romance as the group confronts the mystery that has shadowed them from the beginning.
