1989: What Happens When A Killer Returns For Revenge

Synopsis:
In the quiet town of Monroe, Georgia, the shadow of the “Penny Murderer” still looms, even decades after the killer’s capture. Samuel Johnson, convicted of a string of brutal murders, always proclaimed his innocence. His signature—a note on the victim’s body starting with “A penny for your thoughts”—terrified the town until Detective Mike Allen and his team put him behind bars. But the controversial trial divided the town, and when Johnson was found dead in his cell under suspicious circumstances, whispers of a cover-up began to spread. Nearly thirty years later, those ghosts come roaring back to life when Detective Allen’s new partner, Marcus Jones, is found dead under mysterious circumstances. The tragic loss puts Jones’s wife, attorney Nicole Jones, in the crosshairs as a prime suspect. Desperate to clear her name, Nicole embarks on a harrowing journey to uncover the truth about her husband’s death—only to uncover disturbing secrets he kept hidden, secrets that connect him to the Penny Murderer case. Simultaneously, Detective Allen finds himself retracing the dark path of the original investigation, forced to confront the skeletons in his own closet. With a new partner challenging his every move and the town’s darkest secrets beginning to surface, Allen must question everything he once believed: Did they get the wrong man all those years ago? As Nicole and Allen pursue their own investigations, a new killer emerges—one armed with knowledge of the past and a burning desire for revenge. The killer appears determined to expose the corruption and lies that have festered beneath Monroe’s surface for decades. But as the body count rises and the past and present collide, Nicole and Allen are pushed to their limits. In this gripping thriller, alliances are tested, old wounds are reopened, and the line between guilt and innocence blurs. Can they stop the Penny Murderer’s deadly plan before it’s too late, or will the sins of the past consume them all?
