PARIS

On a business trip to Paris with Teddy (James Purefoy) and her husband, Philip (Jesse L. Martin), Olivia (Neve Campbell) runs into an old friend, Isabelle. Reminiscing is short lived however, as Isabelle soon admits to being in debt to Bejan, a high powered Parisian man running a sex trafficking ring out of her hotel. Olivia is devastated when Bejan callously kills Isabelle and she is determined to help the other women caught up in the ring. As Teddy investigates, he is horrified to learn the extent of the trafficking that goes on. As he concocts a plan to free the victims, his findings lead him to a house full of abused young girls and Teddy, determined to see justice, will stop at nothing to rescue them.
