For years, convicted murderer Ruby Deloya has maintained his innocence in a young girl's death. Just before he is set to receive the verdict on his appeal, detective Racheli Zabatani finds the body of another girl killed in an eerily similar way.
Brigadier General Forges is put in charge of the case, much to the dismay of Racheli's father, a retired officer who was instrumental in convicting Deloya. When Forges doesn't appoint Racheli to his team, she fights to be part of the investigation.
