Den karismatiske leder af et pyramidefidus-syndikat, Tina Brogan, findes myrdet med munden proppet fuld af pengesedler. Alle spor synes at pege på Brogans alkoholiserede ægtemand, Terry, men alligevel er Jackie Reid sikker på, at han er uskyldig. En teori, hun står helt alene med.

When Terry Brogan, an alcoholic cancer sufferer, is accused of bludgeoning his wife to death, D.S. Reid finds it difficult to believe that he is guilty of murder, and she sets out to prove his innocence - despite compelling evidence to the contrary. But as the net closes in on the murderer, her irrational sympathy threatens to jeopardise the whole case.
