Trevor Barnett works for Big Tobacco. He is tied to his family's company, Terra, by a juicy trust fund, and he is completely indifferent to the moral issues of the industry. When he speaks candidly about the strength of a class action suit against Terra, he expects to get fired. Instead, he's made the policy guru. As Trevor spearheads a brilliant plan to protect Big Tobacco, however, he begins to realize that he may also become its scapegoat.
