Summary: Following a tragic schoolbus accident, high-profile lawyer Mitchell Stephens descends upon a small town. With promises of retribution and a class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of the grieving community, Stephens begins his investigation into the details of the crash.

Gradually, we learn that Stephens has his own agenda and that everyone has secrets to keep.
