The film tells the riveting story of a complex murder case, parallelly investigated by a police officer and an investigative journalist in their own way, who eventually cross paths to unravel secrets they never imagined.
A brilliant but disgraced Civil War general is sent to a sleepy Tennessee town for a second chance. As his risky tactics win battles, a dangerous affair with a married woman threatens to unravel everything—especially when her jealous husband is offered a fortune to end the general’s life.
