False Witness

When reporter Alex Dunn finally gives in and agrees to meet with a security guard who claims to have information on a major drug ring, he has no idea he is about to see the man executed right in front of his eyes. Now a key witness in the trial of the decade, Alex helps put ruthless criminal Rufus Hodge behind bars for life. Almost immediately, others connected to the case are brutally murdered in what appear to be acts of revenge, and Alex is next in line. He takes on a new identity and flees to a small mountain town from his past to ride out the storm and write a book about the trial. Meanwhile, Rufus Hodge's right-hand man must fight to keep his boss alive in prison as he and two of Alex's fellow reporters take a closer look at the case and discover the facts just don't add up. They soon realize that Alex is an unwitting pawn in an elaborate plot, and that keeping the truth buried is worth more than any of their lives.
