While breaking in to play with her daughter, Maya sees a guy who looks much like her husband. Maya, terrified and refusing to believe it, embarks on a quest to uncover the truth, only to discover that everything is not as it seems. As the murder investigation into Joe’s death gets underway, Detective Sami Kierce is also dealing with personal problems.
Their lives will be irrevocably altered as they go on an exhilarating quest for the truth in Fool Me Once.
When and Where to Watch?
