Once called "Father Frank" for his efforts to rescue lives, Frank Pierce sees the ghosts of those he failed to save around every turn. He has tried everything he can to get fired, calling in sick, delaying taking calls where he might have to face one more victim he couldn't help, yet cannot quit the job on his own.

Emily Crane is fired after refusing to give names to a 1951 House Un-American Activities Committee, and takes a part-time job as companion to an old lady. One day her attention is drawn to a noisy argument being conducted largely in German in a neighbouring house, the more so since one of those involved is her main senator prosecutor. Starting to look into things, she gradually enlists the help of FBI officer Cochran who was initially detailed to check her out. Just as well when things turn nasty

Tom and Perri are the happy ideal New York couple until Tom's beloved Golden Retriever is killed by a hit-and-run driver. Tom blames Perri for the accident and their relationship becomes strained as Tom's fixation with finding and punishing the culprit consumes his life. Perri can't understand Tom's thirst for vengeance and she grows distant from him. When Tom disappears, she falls into an affair with her scheming colleague. Events spin out of control as death, sex and cynicism take their toll on Tom and Perri's seemingly idyllic life. But why should infidelity, hypocrisy and murder ruin a perfectly good relationship?
