Twenty-two years ago, Quincy Miller, a Black man in a predominantly white Florida town, was wrongfully convicted of murdering attorney Keith Russo. Despite a lack of reliable witnesses, dubious motive, and a crucial blood-splattered torch found in his car conveniently destroyed before trial, Quincy was sentenced to life without parole. For over two decades, he has maintained his innocence from behind bars. His one hope arrives in the form of Cullen Post, an extraordinary innocence lawyer and minister, who has successfully exonerated eight men in the past ten years. Post takes on Quincy's case, determined to uncover the truth and free him. However, the powerful and ruthless individuals who orchestrated Russo's murder prefer to keep an innocent man imprisoned rather than expose themselves. They have proven their willingness to kill to protect their secrets, and Post's investigation places him in grave danger, forcing him to confront a conspiracy that reaches far beyond the walls of Quincy's prison.
