Description
When defending a series of gruesome sex slayings dubbed The Toolbox Murders, idealistic young attorney Simon Jacks is about to face his most important case. But in a moment of stress, he throws a punch and is ordered to take time off.
Retreating to a secluded island cabin with his family and friends, Simon hopes for a relaxing vacation. Instead, he encounters conflicting ideologies, jealousy, and betrayal. As the lines between reality and paranoia blur, childish pranks turn deadly in an episode of terror.
To survive, Simon may have to sacrifice his most precious conviction: that everyone deserves a fair trial. A gripping tale of suspense and mystery unfolds as Simon's world is turned upside down by the forces of fear and deception.
