Martin Campbell (CASINO ROYALE) combines with the writer of THE DEPARTED and Academy Award® winner Mel Gibson to create an emotionally charged thriller set at the intersection of politics and big business.

Thomas Craven (Gibson) is a veteran homicide detective for the Boston Police Department and a single father. When his only child, twenty-four year-old Emma (Novakovic), is murdered on the steps of his home, everyone assumes he was the target. But he soon suspects otherwise, and embarks on a mission to find out about his daughter’s secret life and her killing. His investigation leads him into a dangerous, looking glass world of corporate cover-ups, government collusion and murder – and to shadowy government operative Darius Jedburgh (Winstone), who has been sent in to clean up the evidence. Craven’s solitary search for answers about his daughter’s death transforms into an odyssey of emotional discovery and redemption.
