When a bomb rips through the Los Angeles subway train he's riding on, blue-collar Mike Ferro (Boyd Holbrook) just wants to make sure his wife, Allison, and 10-year-old daughter, Pearl, are safe. But the faulty evidence on the ground and "tweet-now, confirm-later" journalism paint a nightmarish picture: it looks to all the world that Mike was responsible for the heinous act. Wrongfully--and very publicly--accused, Mike must prove his innocence by uncovering the real perpetrator, before the legendary cop Clay Bryce (Kiefer Sutherland) heading the investigation can apprehend him.
