Plot
editA young woman and two other people are killed in a Kindle County local bar. Experienced detective sergeant Larry Starczek (Tom Selleck) begins investigation on the murders. Soon everything points to the small-time thief Squirrel. Larry arrests him and makes the thief confess. After a short trial, Squirrel is sent to death row.
The story now moves seven years later, as new evidence surfaces. Nobody is confident that it was Squirrel who actually killed the victims years ago. Furthermore, the judge from his trial may have been compromused.
