Prosecutor Justine Boucher has only asked for the death penalty once, in a brutal murder case. In doing so, she put her own life on the line. Because, if the convicted are later found innocent, the lawyer who requested the execution will be sentenced to death. Justine had no doubt that the man she sent to the chair was guilty. Until now. Presented with evidence that could prove his innocence, Justine must find out the truth before anyone else does. Her life depends on it.

Time: 2047. Place: Washington DC. A loner. A teacher. A killer. A preacher. On the streets of the capital city, four lives may be about to collide. And if they do, a nation once regarded as “the greatest country in the world” will begin to self destruct. President Sally W. Campbell can see the danger coming. But can her plan to end America's misery come to fruition before it's too late? The power, of course, is not in her hands. The power lies in the hands of those who control the narrative to the American people: the media.

In a small suburb of Connecticut, and totally unaware of each other, four lives are about to collide. But will their lives entangle before experienced cop, Nate Bennett, and rookie cop, Maggie Zucha, complete their investigation of tracking down footage that, if released, will shake America to its very core? Their detective skills are put to the toughest test, but they'll need to be quick because they're not the only ones searching for this story… and whoever finds it first will hold all the power.
