 Lieutenant Commander Reef Klima commands a SEAL team. The Joint Special Operations Command orders it to rescue a US Marine, the Duke of Edinburgh, and others from an al-Qaeda cell that has taken them to a lakeside house in Syria. Senior Chief Emma Bartram, the team sniper, and Major Magnus McKellar, Special Boat Service, are involved in the rescue. During it, the leader of the cell hits Klima on the head. The blow causes a traumatic brain injury, and Klima becomes an 'acquired savant;' he develops prodigious mathematical and other abilities. The Navy places him on medical-hold, assigns him to the Joint Interagency Task Force in Key West. He also becomes an advisor to the Army Special Forces Underwater Operations School. While recovering from TBI and working as a JIATF weather forecaster, Klima uses his Ph.D. in applied mathematics to help NOAA with climate models. He is also learning to cope with an explosive temper. The Navy promotes Bartram to ensign and assigns her to JIATF. The man who caused Klima's TBI leads a cell to Key West and they attack SFUWO. Klima and Green Berets fight them and take one prisoner. The prisoner claims the cell bought a nuclear weapon in Cuba that it's in the keys: left in Cuba during the Missile Crisis. JIAF helps the Department of Energy search for the nuke. Bartram confronts a suicide bomber driving a boat intending to kill spectators watching a superpower boat race. The leader of the cell flees Key West in a stolen Cessna and Reef and other operators follow him to Cuba.
