The General's Daughter

When Lt. General Joseph Campbell's (James Cromwell) daughter is found naked and murdered, Paul Brenner (John Travolta) and his old flame Sara Sunhill (Madeleine Stowe) are called in to investigate. Each turn in this tangled story reviews a sexual scheme and cover-ups that might go all the way to the top of the chain of command on the post. The truth behind what happened to Elizabeth Campbell (Leslie Stefanson) goes all the way back to her days at West Point. The things that happened there set forth a chain of events that begin to unravel even with the apparent guilt and possible suicide of her only friend. Was this just another coverup in a long string? Was the General involved? The tension between the investigators and their past relationship colors their views as they take on the task of finding Elizabeth's killer.
