Rufus Harms was found guilty 25 years ago of a murder he feels he committed. But a letter from the army causes him to recall his memory, and he suddenly realizes, shockingly, that he is innocent. Unaware that the actual murderers are after him, Rufus surreptitiously files an appeal with the Supreme Court while he is incarcerated. However, the lifelong prisoner realizes he is running out of time when the murders of his attorney and the Supreme Court clerk—the first person to view Rufus's appeal—occur. With his brother's assistance, Rufus is now on the run, and he has to stay out of sight long enough to uncover a terrible cover-up and escape with his life.
