On February 11, 1992, Patrick Lanigan, a partner at the law firm Bogan, Rapley, Vitrano, Havarac & Lanigan, watches his own funeral through binoculars from a tree. Days earlier, his grotesquely mutilated body was found in his burned-out car. Six weeks later, a staggering $90 million from a client goes missing, and suspicion quickly falls on Patrick, who may not be as dead as everyone believed. Four years later, he is discovered in a small town in Brazil. Upon his return to the U.S., he faces a large welcoming committee: former partners who lost both reputation and fortune, a client who suffered a significant loss, the police and FBI eager to uncover the truth about the remains buried, and his 'widow' Trudy, now compelled by insurance companies to return the substantial life insurance payouts. Some want him alive, others prefer him dead. The central questions remain: is the missing fortune intact, and what drove Patrick to his actions?
