Single mother Revelle Lee spends her days translating the words of witnesses and defendants in London's court rooms. Only she knows what they're saying; a misinterpreted word could decide their fate. So when she believes a grave injustice is about to take a place, and a guilty man might be declared innocent, Revelle twists an alibi to change the verdict and send him to prison. No one can ever find out that she interfered or she will lose everything - even her son. But someone knows what she's done... And they want justice of their own.
