CRIMINAL CHASE - OPTIONED

CRIMINAL CHASE - OPTIONED
By Alessandra Cardoso

GENRE: Thriller, Crime
LOGLINE:

Criminal Defense Attorney Jordan Chase’s life obsession is to find the culprit of her father’s incarceration and death before the police’s investigation into her stalker exposes the missing bodies - and her sanity.

SYNOPSIS:

Jordan’s father, Chief of Police Alexander Chase, is torn from his family home in the middle of the night in a police sting operation leaving a deep wound in the young Jordan. He dies in a prison fire before she can prove his innocence, propelling her into the world of PTSD.

Jordan is a Criminal Defense Attorney with personal demons whose mission in life, beside revenge on who set her father up, is to protect those without a voice like him... well most of them. Other times she finds alternative redemption methods – like murder!

A stalker interferes in her subtle schemes and brings attention from the police. Now her world is under investigation as Detective Phidon and his partner, Detective Vearyll, try to catch, not only the stalker, but also the serial killer who targets only Jordan’s acquitted serial killers - why just them?

The deeper the police dig the more it seems that Jordan’s life is not so standard. Her Firm partner and brother-in- law, Leonard, manipulated by her jealous half-sister, Joan, conspires to take over the Firm. Her best friend Eddy, the District Attorney, who, unknown to Jordan, has a violent history and suspicious involvement in her rape attempt in college. Her ex-husband Jake, the investigative reporter, delves into the homicides that may expose more than he would like. Oh, and he also had an affair with her sister!

Jordan must juggle all facets of her life to ensure no one ever finds out her secret!
