Ten years ago Donna Langford was found guilty of conspiring to murder her husband: she ordered the hit and a burned body was found in his car. Now, a young private detective approaches the police with evidence that Donna's husband might still be alive and she was framed. DI Tom Thorne, against his better judgement, is forced to investigate.
