A morally complex historical courtroom drama about injustice and the burden of defending the indefensible during a nation's darkest hour.
Mary Surratt is the lone female charged as a co-conspirator in the assassination trial of Abraham Lincoln. As the whole nation turns against her, she is forced to rely on her reluctant lawyer to uncover the truth and save her life.
