Alice Malvin commands a military propaganda unit, but she idealistically yearns to cut through the deception. When she uncovers a super-soldier program known as The Invisible Nine, she finds herself trapped in a web of deadly secrets. Malvin turns to an unlikely ally—Randel Orland, a hulking veteran who may hold the key to unlocking the mysteries of The Invisible Nine. (Source: Crunchyroll)
