Late one night, a man walks into the luxurious home of disgraced banker Harry McNamara and his wife, Julie. And when the man launches an unspeakably brutal attack on Harry, a horror-struck Julie watches her husband die. Just one hour later, J. P. Carney hands himself into the police and confesses to beating Harry to death. Except he also claims that the assault was not premeditated and that he didn’t know the identity of his victim. With a man as notorious as Harry McNamara, who was just found innocent in a highly sensationalized fraud trial, the detectives cannot help but wonder: Was this really a random act of violence? Was Julie really powerless to stop JP? When Harry’s many sins are unveiled to include corruption, greed and betrayal, nothing is for sure.
