Brady Coyne has a thriving law practice. When an old client needs a defense lawyer for his son, Brady enlists his fishing buddy, Paul Cizek. Cizek is called in to defend Glen Falconer, who killed a woman while driving drunk. The case looks open and shut against Glen, but Cizek works miracles and gets him off. Not long after his victory, Cizek disappears when the Coast Guard finds his empty boat drifting at sea. Brady decides to take a closer look. Was it an accident, suicide or even murder?
