Show plot summary (may contain spoilers)

An affluent African American psychiatrist is sent to federal prison after being found guilty of murdering his wife, then sent to solitary confinement - a victim of systemic racism. Isolated and fighting for an appeal, he slowly descends into madness, pushed to his breaking point by an abusive female guard hell bent on her own form of justice. Haunted by internal demons and his dead wife, he questions his own innocence and sanity, making his time in the S.H.U. a never-ending nightmare.
