Virgin Lies - Synopsis

On a blistering Boston summer day, a nine-year old girl disappears while crossing a public park. The only witness is a homeless schizophrenic woman, who believes she has been placed under surveillance as part of a massive government conspiracy. Dr. Paul Lucas - an expert at interrogating violent criminals and the insane - is called in to help evaluate the woman’s testimony.

Lucas elicits small details that lead police to three people with no apparent connection: a retired engineer, his disabled wife, and a young man who works at a donut shop. But interviews with each suspect go nowhere, frustrating detectives and calling into doubt Paul’s role in the case. Believing the girl is alive but without water and soon to die, he is pushed to the brink of a professional abyss - under intense focus from local media, distrusted by police, and pressured by his wife Abby, whose stake in the search is deeply personal. 

With time running out, Paul has to make a choice: to uphold the central oath of his profession, or to do whatever it takes to find the girl, even if he must crack the mind of a vulnerable patient.
