Description: Attorney Casey Jordan looks forward to working for Freedom Project, a charity group dedicated to helping wrongfully convicted prisoners. Her first assignment is an indigent black man who has served almost 20 years of a life sentence for the rape and murder of a college student. Casey expects to prove the man's innocence using DNA evidence, but she immediately encounters death threats and assassination attempts. From the judge, lawyers, and jury, to the police, her investigation traces a complex web of corruption surrounding the destruction of one young man. But in all the chaos, Casey's hardest challenge may be just staying alive.
