He becomes embroiled in a political scandal when he uncovers corruption within the local government and exposes it in his newspaper. This puts him in danger and he must navigate his way through a web of deceit and danger to clear his name and protect his loved ones. Along the way, Jervis falls in love with a local woman, adding a romantic subplot to the story.
