Welcome to Golden State, where the worst crime you can commit is to lie.

Laz Ratesic is a veteran of the State's special police. Those in power rely on Laz to discover the full and final truth.

But when a man falls from a roof in suspicious circumstances, it sets in motion a terrifying series of events which will shatter Laz's world for ever.

Because when those in control of the truth decide to twist it, only those with the power to ask questions can fight back.
