A morally complex thriller that uses a hit-and-run tragedy to interrogate truth, justice, and the compromises people make when systems fail.

A hit and run of an 18-year-old girl becomes the hub of a wheel that sets into motion many a spoke - a journalist, a raging mother, a cop and a system all caught in an ethical dilemma. Questions are raised only to realize that the truth is rarely pure and never simple.
