Karen has played by the rules, and she lives secure in the assumption that things always turn out for the best. Suddenly, however, her safe, ordered existence is shattered when a stranger enters her home, murders her daughter and, despite overwhelming evidence, is set free on a legal technicality. Outraged, grief-stricken and obsessed with achieving justice, Karen embarks on a dangerous personal journey, and even she doesn't know how far she will go to find peace.
