A woman imprisoned for murder must rely on a cold case investigator to clear her name in this tense crime thriller. When Carrie was accused of brutally murdering her husband's lover, she denied it. Even when they found her blood inside his house. Even when they sent her to prison. Now three years into her fifteen-year sentence, she's gradually losing hope and separated from her pregnant daughter. Tess works for a charity that helps clear people wrongfully convicted of crimes. Though the charity has accepted Carrie's case, Tess has learned not to trust too easily—her assumption is that "they're all lying." Meanwhile, Tess is also mentoring Avril, a naïve young investigator-in-training. When new information comes to light that could prove Carrie's innocence, the cold case is blown wide open. But as Tess and Avril work the case, re-interviewing witnesses and questioning every assumption, the tension ratchets up in both the case and Tess's personal life.
