Plot Summary: 

The thriller tells a tragic story that happens in the US Army. Warrant Officer Paul Brenner (John Travolta) is assigned to investigate the murder of Elisabeth Campbell (Leslie Stefanson), the daughter of the prominent Lieutenant General Campbell (James Cromwell). The young woman, who is an army captain in psychological operations, is found naked, tied to tent poles and strangled. Seven years ago, when Elisabeth was a cadet at West Point, she was brutally beaten and gang-raped by fellow trainees during a training exercise. Her father forced her to keep mum and thus the assailants escaped punishment. The incident itself and the General’s deliberate cover-up changed the girl’s attitude towards her dad and psychologically damaged her, causing her to become sexually promiscuous. The investigator and his assistant, Sara Sunhill (Madeleine Stowe), find compromising videotapes in a secret room in Elisabeth’s house. The grief-stricken General, who is a Vice-Presidential candidate for the upcoming elections, finds himself in a political crisis and wants Brenner to close the investigation…
