He's a good man with a dark secret. She knows it, and needs a man killed.

In the middle of a hot summer night, Peter Robertson's phone rings. A beautiful woman issues a threat: kill Kyle, the man who stalks and abuses her, or she'll expose Peter's horrible past.

Peter pretends to go along as he seeks another, less violent solution. But Kyle turns up dead anyway, and the police arrest Peter's best friend, Frankie, of all people.

Peter knows he's innocent, but can he prove it without directing the finger of blame at himself—for both murders?
