Dr. Ethan Powell, a brilliant anthropologist, has been living with mountain gorillas in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest for several years. He is convicted of killing and injuring several park rangers and is sent to prison. Theo Caulder, a young and ambitious psychiatrist, is assigned to examine Powell's mental state. Caulder is determined to understand the motivations behind Powell's actions and to prove his own theories about the human mind. As he delves deeper into Powell's psyche, Caulder discovers that Powell's behavior is not just a result of his time in the jungle, but also of his past experiences and the secrets he has been keeping.
