The murderer stews in jail for seven years, obsessively following the rising career of his arresting officer, who becomes a DA with a promising future, a husband, and a dad. This doesn't sit well with the vengeful convict, who after escaping from prison, puts into play a series of fiendish plots in an attempt to destroy the attorney's marriage and career. And only by engaging in a violent rematch with his diabolical nemesis will the desecrated DA be able to clear his name and save his marriage. [More]

As with other Silver-smithed projects, this one is almost frighteningly competent at bashing heads and pushing all the right buttons. Full Review |
