The innocent tend to get hurt when seeking vengeance against an enemy.

Marcus Bradley owns a very successful law firm. As the progeny of a tyrant, he has been taught to manage his business and personal life with ruthless control. While backtalk from a subordinate is grounds for termination, the same behavior from his wife or mistress usually ends in violence. He has won the majority of his court cases by bending the truth and planting evidence. These ugly character flaws have earned him few friends, but a plethora of dangerous enemies.

After years of abuse, Marcus's wife, Abigail, finally finds the courage to leave him. To get her to stay, he tries bullying her, but her conviction never wavers. In his fury, he attacks her. As death waits in the shadows to claim her soul, he is suddenly knocked unconscious by a blow to the back of his head. When he recovers, he discovers his wife's bloody body in the living room, and his two sons missing.

As Marcus attempts to flee the gruesome scene, he discovers a bloody pocket knife that would implicate him as his wife's assassin. While staring at the knife, he is rendered unconscious a second time. This time when he wakes, the bloody knife has disappeared, and a letter that exonerates him as his wife's killer, and informs him that his sons have been kidnapped, is in its place. To gain his boys' freedom, he must deliver twenty million dollars to a cabin in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Wrestling with his tyrannical and narcissistic nature, he struggles to make the right decision. His lawyer instincts suggest someone he knows is behind this madness.

As he races to save his family, and his money, he discovers baffling evidence that has him questioning his sanity. Could Abigail be alive? Is she the mastermind behind this vicious stratagem?
