Story
A former policeman turned college professor of forensics, named John Russell (played by Donald Sutherland), is approached by a widow, Barbara Haggerty (played by Anne Archer). Her husband was found murdered with an unusual weapon - a musket, and his mistress has gone missing. The police suspect Barbara in her husband's murder. Initially reluctant to take on the case due to his own personal struggles, John eventually agrees to investigate the crime. As he digs deeper, he uncovers clues that suggest the husband's death might be linked to drug dealers.
