Thin Blue Lie

In this city, cops are kings...and brutality reigns.

Philadelphia, 1976. The city of Brotherly Love is waging a successful war against crime led by its tough-talking mayor, Frank Rizzo (Paul Sorvino). But a maverick investigative reporter, Jonathan Neumann (Rob Morrow), has heard some troubling rumors: stories of innocent people victimized by a "goon squad" of law enforcement officers.

With his reluctant partner Phil Chadway (Randy Quaid), and a beautiful colleague (Cynthia Preston), Neumann follows a twisting, turning trail of leads pointing to a cache of records documenting hundreds of brutality cases. When Nuemann begins to receive death threats, he realizes he is perilously close to uncovering a corrupt scandal-one that reaches all the way to the mayor's office. With his time running out, Neumann risks everything to learn the truth-and break a shocking story that will reverberate through the nation. Based on Neumann and Chadway's Pulitzer Prize-winning articles, The Thin Blue Lie crackles with white-knuckle suspense and excitement.
