This is not a "strong female lead" - this lead is not female in any way but physical. I'm convinced they originally wrote this for a male lead and some executive had the bright idea that a woman main character would be easier to sell. Instead of rewriting anything, they simply did a find-and-replace on the character's name.
A rootless genius, Iris Nixon, steals an enigmatic code from a charming philanthropist and disappears. A tense countdown ensues as she races to unravel the code's mystery.
