Having left her job as a CIA analyst for ethical reasons, newly appointed Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord returns to public life at the request of the president, after the suspicious death of her predecessor.

At home, politics and compromise take on new meaning with her supportive husband and three bright kids. Wikipedia
