Beware of someone who owns you and your secrets.
8 January 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Harrison French(Matt Davis)is a young businessman who's career is headed for the crapper. On the way home from a gathering he accidentally runs over and kills his own brother-in-law on a rainy highway. The man to help cover up this crime is a smart and powerful attorney William Ashbury(James Spader), who is the leader of an underground society of other men of notoriety trapped in a web of fear and blackmail. These men give up every Tuesday night with no exception to meet. Caught in this devious society are lawmakers and law enforcers. Troubles can seem to disappear while under Ashbury's thumb. But sometimes a new future is able to slip away from the shadow of fear.

Intense and gripping with a well thought out finale. Spader is perfect in this role. In the supporting cast: Peter Coyote, Robin Tunney, Aidan Quinn and Lacey Chabert. Kudos to Rich Cowan, director of this thinking man's thriller. Writing credits: Matthew Hollaway and Arthur Marcum.
