David John, an illegal alien pursuing the American dream in breach of U.S. immigration law is involved in a controversial murder that ends in his own murder. David comes to the United States from Africa to head the New York office of an African based television company.

A terrified David, sees his American dream disappearing into the prison walls of death. He becomes a fugitive offender on the run from the law. He seeks refuge with a long lost childhood friend and soccer star, Segun Idemudia, in Newark, New Jersey, hundreds of miles away from the scene of his crime in Arlington, Texas. In Newark, David begins a new life, keeping close to his chest the untold secret of his past. He falls in love and marries Jennifer Tomson, an American woman, who bears him a daughter. But a relentless manhunt by the police leads to his arrest two years after the murder in Texas. An explosive murder trial ends with his acquittal. David is not to savor life in his American oasis of dreams after his freedom. Peeved by the court verdict, Patrick Donover, an Iraqi war hero and elder brother of the murdered teenager decides to take the law into his hands. He unloads the fatal bullets that cut short David’s life.
