ActionAdventureCrimeDramaThrillerWestern97 min

Big-city lawyer Casey McKay heads to a rural town at his ex-wife’s request to defend her brother, who’s been accused of murdering a district attorney. What starts as an unwelcome favor widens into a conspiracy that reaches beyond the courtroom and straight to Mr. Gates, a corrupt land developer with influence over the town. Eric Close leads as Casey moves through a case tangled with family history, local power, and buried deals, with Nick Searcy and Tommy Flanagan among the faces around him as the defense turns into a fight against the town’s entrenched interests.
