Synopsis: Sam Bowden is a small-town corporate attorney/"Leave It to Beaver"-esque family-man. Max Cady is a tattooed, cigar-smoking, bible-quoting, psychotic rapist. What do they have in common? Fourteen years ago Sam was a public defender assigned to Max Cady's rape trial, and he made a serious error: he constructed a document from his illiterate client that could have resulted in his acquittal. Now, the cagey, bibliophile Cady has been released, and he intends to teach Sam Bowden and his family a thing or two about loss. (Written by James Craver)
