      Todd Paige n'est plus qu'une vieille gloire du journalisme d'investigation, tout juste relégué à la rubrique des chiens écrasés. Il ne lui reste que sa Chevrolet rouillée et... quelques amies d'un soir. Autant dire que l'avenir, loin de Manhattan, son habitat naturel, s'annonce morose... jusqu'à ce coup de fil inespéré de son contact dans la police de New York, le lieutenant Sarah vanAllen, qui lui offre un scoop : un enlèvement d'enfants en plein cœur de la ville. Ce que Todd Paige ignore encore, lorsque sa rédaction accepte finalement de lui confier l'enquête, c'est qu'il est en passe de révéler l'un des pires scandales qui ait jamais entaché le système carcéral américain.
