After years as a prosecutor, defense attorney Wes Farrell grapples with a crisis of faith, questioning how to defend clients he believes are likely guilty. He previously helped convict Paul Riley for the rape and murder of Dana Rush, only for DNA evidence to later exonerate Riley after eleven years. Just months after his release, Riley is murdered, and Farrell must defend the prime suspect: Dana's father, Doug Rush. An eyewitness, Paul's father, claims to have seen Doug fleeing the scene, leading Farrell to presume his guilt despite Doug's protests of innocence. Tasked with negotiating the best deal for a man the system has failed, Farrell's plans unravel when Doug suddenly disappears before his bail hearing. Feeling responsible for his client's fate, Farrell seeks help from his colleague, seasoned attorney Dismas Hardy, and retired police lieutenant-turned PI Abe Glitsky to locate Doug. The search raises questions about justice and morality, filled with twists and misdirection. This gripping narrative highlights the flaws in the justice system and the dedicated individuals fighting to restore balance.
