Description
A thriving law practice and a happy mar¬riage to a beautiful woman nearly convince solicitor Eric Ward that he has overcome his painful past and started a new life. Two seemingly unrelated cases shatter his belief:
Ward represents an investigative reporter, badly beaten by a local roughneck when he goes too far in pursuit of his story; and he tries to find a man who's been missing for three years, at the request of a woman from Ward's own half-forgotten past. When a gruesome discovery in the first case leads to the bizarre solution of the second, Ward finds that the past, though dead, will not stay buried.
