A prestigious Northwestern Connecticut law school is rocked by a scandal when a female student accuses one of her male peers of a vicious rape at a party. When the media picks up the story, it ignites a national firestorm threatening that engulfs the two students' politically connected families. To avoid potential embarrassment, "Boston" Hollinger and Watchtower are brought in to assist the FBI and Connecticut State Police in determining the truth. What they uncover is far more than they bargained for.
During a victim interview, Boston utilizes his gift of seeing memories to uncover what really happened to the girl - and nobody is prepared to accept what he learns. Not content to accept the narrative, he learns that the fathers are more interested in guarding their secrets than preserving their children's welfare. As the two men jealously guard their enterprises, Boston comes face-to-face with his nemesis - a man whose memories he can't see.
When a pair of tragic deaths rock the investigation, the pressure on the team to cut their losses and return home becomes unbearable. Not content to simply follow orders and abandon the mission, Boston is faced with a choice that will change the trajectory of his life: leave their fathers' fate to an unreliable legal system or dispense justice by taking matters into his own hands. It's a decision that will bring him into the clutches of a dangerous foe intent on exposing him to the world.
