Cradle song

A child murderer appeals his conviction. In return for a reduced sentence, he offers to implicate those involved in the crimes who were never caught, to provide evidence of police corruption at the time of the original investigation, and to reveal where the corpses of several never found teenage girls are buried. Private investigator Leo Rivers is asked for help, and stir cold and bitter memories with his enquiries. Everyone involved, then and now, is unprepared for the suddenness and ferocity with which these old embers are fanned back into life.
