Abandoned by her father as a child, the independent twenty-one-year-old Alice is accustomed to men being unpredictable, but Jack Chase is something else. Just moments after surprising her with a rare family ring, he's suddenly kidnapped by two thugs and driven into darkness. It is then that Alice is confronted by a sharply dressed stranger who calls himself White Rabbit, and who promises to know more about Jack than she. Where Alice follows him is through the liquid glass of an ornate mirror. Where she lands is Wonderland, an outlandish underground city of twisted towers and parapets, staircases conceived in a Dali dream, and an otherworldly purple horizon. Soon, the word's out that Wonderland has its most prized captive. It seems Alice has the ring that controls the looking glass'the key to the power of the Queen of Hearts. It was mad folly for her son Jack to give it to a girl he barely knew. But Jack had his reasons. Discovering them is up to Alice.

Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler) is an upstanding family man whose wife and daughter are brutally murdered during a home invasion. When the killers are caught, Nick Rice (Jamie Foxx), a hotshot young Philadelphia prosecutor, is assigned to the case. Over his objections, Nick is forced by his boss to offer one of the suspects a light sentence in exchange for testifying against his accomplice.
Fast forward ten years. The man who got away with murder is found dead and Clyde Shelton coolly admits his guilt. Then he issues a warning to Nick: Either fix the flawed justice system that failed his family, or key players in the trial will die.
Soon Shelton follows through on his threats, orchestrating from his jail cell a string of spectacularly diabolical assassinations that can be neither predicted nor prevented. Philadelphia is gripped with fear as Shelton's high-profile targets are slain one after another and the authorities are powerless to halt his reign of terror. Only Nick can stop the killing, and to do so he must outwit this brilliant sociopath in a harrowing contest of wills in which even the smallest misstep means death. With his own family now in Shelton's crosshairs, Nick finds himself in a desperate race against time facing a deadly adversary who seems always to be one step ahead.

Set in the 1890s, the sophisticated and sly Detective William Murdoch (Peter Outerbridge ' ReGenesis, Lucky Number Slevin) investigates murders against the seedy backdrop of a debauched world where no one trusts the police and everyone seems sinister. Murdoch is a principled young man whose intelligence and compassion are often at odds with his superiors and co-workers. While seemingly irrefutable evidence leads his peers down the wrong investigative paths, Murdoch's keen instinct will not allow him to dismiss causes of death so easily. Without modern-day technology to aid him and often with minimal help from witnesses, Murdoch must get to the bottom of each crime armed only with his wits and cunning ' and he will not rest until the murderer is brought to justice. Considered a 'CSI in the 1890s,' Murdoch Mysteries are gripping thrillers based on Maureen Jennings's bestselling mystery novels about a cop years ahead of his time.
