Attorney Raymond Jackson is
troubled by ethics charges, his failing practice, and memories of his
still missing sister. When he agrees to resolve the ethics charges by
taking on a case from the public defender, he gets saddled with a client
nobody wants.
The client is charged with the
murder of his former girlfriend, an exotic dancer who was pregnant at
the time of the crime. Investigating the State’s key witness, Ray
discovers several similar unsolved murders from the past few years.
Needing help, Ray must turn to the man he trusts the least.
Ray also becomes involved in a money laundering
investigation with his old girlfriend. As the bodies pile up, Ray finds
himself framed for murder on the eve of trial. When the investigations
collide, the cases become personal and Ray must choose between justice
for his client or himself.
