Don Newell, a scriptwriter for a popular crime show, becomes involved with a glamorous but manipulative actress named Paula. Despite being married, Don is entangled in an affair with Paula, who is also involved with another man, Henry Hayes, her former lover and a researcher for the show.

Hidden beneath the web of lies is a complex human story of ambition gone awry and lost morality. With investigators closing in, Don's professional expertise in creating fictional crime clashes with the reality he's caught up in, fueling a suspenseful narrative. In this tense world where scripted lines blur with real danger, the unraveling of truth holds life-changing consequences for everyone involved.
