The Simple Truth

Rufus Harms remembers the murder he committed 25 years ago. What he cannot remember are the events that led to his shocking crime, nor any reason why he would have killed a defenseless little girl. When a letter from the Army jogs his memory, it becomes clear to Rufus that he was not guilty. From his prison cell, Rufus files an appeal with the Supreme Court, unaware that the real killers are on to him. The long-time convict knows he's running out of time when the Supreme Court clerk, who is the first to see Rufus' appeal, is murdered. Now, sprung from prison by his brother and working with attorney John Fiske, who has his own score to settle, Rufus must elude capture long enough to expose a shocking cover-up - before the deadly conspiracy strikes him down.
