Description

After the news of their 19 year-old son's hate crime on a local mosque, Alice, an award-winning, cancer-curing scientist, and husband Patrick, a novelist, are forced into a whirlwind of self-examination and stripping back of decades-old secrets.

In the harrowing unfolding of hypocrisies and brash pragmatism, Fury hones in on our true motivations and their lasting consequences.
