Homicide Detective Sean Forrest is puzzled why he is awakened from his first, good night’s sleep in a week to respond to a bank alarm. His confusion is quickly cleared when he finds a body was left behind. He recognizes the dead man as a convicted felon who is supposed to be in prison, but he cannot verify the man’s identity because his finger prints are not in the police database. The dead felon’s presence leads Detective Forrest to suspect the man’s prison warden of illegal activity, and this suspicion leads to him and his family being targeted. His investigation into the warden becomes complicated when he determines someone is working as a police insider. Now Detective Forrest must determine who is interfering with his investigation and convict the warden.
