Henry. Five years in prison.

Now back behind bars again.

The crime? Murder. He's in despair.

His Probation Officer, Madeleine Brooks, is worried about him. She knows he's innocent of the murder - she's spoken to a reliable witness who can alibi Henry and she's informed the police.

But they can't find her. The witness has quit her job; gone on holiday.

Really?

No witness, no defence. The police are confident they have their man.

Maddie knows she is Henry's last hope. But she has skills in dealing with criminals and the justice system, so Maddie takes it upon herself to resolve a terrible injustice. Not only that, a brutal murderer is still out there.

But she needs to do it fast. Before another girl is killed.
