Kevin Doucette, portrayed by Stephen Oates, lives a modest and desperate life on Prince Edward Island. He and his wife, played by Liane Balaban, are expecting their first child, and Kevin's low income is not enough to support his family. However, Kevin's life takes a turn when he discovers a bag of money on the beach, which seems to be the answer to all of his problems.
But the newfound wealth quickly becomes a source of trouble for Kevin. A dangerous stranger, played by Joel Thomas Hynes, arrives in town looking for the money, and one wrong move from Kevin sets off a chain of events that transforms his quiet fishing village into a hotbed of criminal activity. Despite his best efforts to keep his secret stash hidden, Kevin finds himself in the midst of a growing crime scene that threatens to unravel his life completely.

Joining forces with an old friend, hardened ex-cop Xoey Cass, Harrington must race against time to stop dangerous new enemies from threatening the future of Supercity Europe. With the conspiracy unravelling, Harrington and Cass find themselves on a collision course with both The Matriarch, a ruthless crime lord, and the Phalanx Corporation, the militarised security force that polices the streets.
Caught in a dangerous web and haunted by ghosts from his previous life, Mo must confront his past as a genetically enhanced Hoplite super-soldier, as well as his own moral code. From the depths of Supercity Europe's underworld to the forgotten military installations of the arctic circle, Harrington and Cass are pitted against shadowy forces, clone troopers and masked assassins as they fight to stop the mysterious 'Project: Centurion', once and for all.
