A high school guidance counselor's life is thrown into chaos when a wealthy student accuses him of rape. The case takes a dramatic turn when another student comes forward with a similar claim, but the subsequent investigation reveals a complex web of deception, blackmail, and triple-crosses among the sun-drenched elite of South Florida.
