Storyline for Harlan Coben’s I Will Find You

Five years after that scene, David Burroughs (Sam Worthington) is in a prison in Maine, having been convicted of killing his son Matthew (Jasper Rainn Lawrence).

He was wrongly convicted, as he was asleep in another room when Matthew was beaten to death, though he found his son’s body.

In addition, Matthew could not be visually IDed, so he was identified via DNA.

He hasn’t taken visitors, including his ex-wife Cheryl Dreason (Erin Richards).

But his sister-in-law, Rachel Mills (Britt Lower) pays a surprise visit, with shocking information: A photo where there’s a kid in the background with a birthmark on his right cheek. Could that be Matthew?

It seems impossible, but it seems that one of the corrections officers, Ted Wesson (Christopher Redman), gets nervous enough about the conversation to cut it off.

While Rachel, a journalist who has been biding her time teaching at a college since leaving the Boston Globe under a cloud, looks into the things, David goes to the warden, Philip Mackenzie (Peter Outerbridge), who was partners with David’s father Lenny (Hugh Thompson) on the Boston PD, for the case files.
