A hard-charging investigative reporter (Renner) stumbles upon the story of a lifetime when he uncovers a link between US government intelligence agencies and Central American drug smugglers. Determined to prove the CIA used cocaine profits to fund the Contra rebels, Webb endangers his career and family when he ignores the warnings of agency operatives in his relentless pursuit of the truth. Kill the Messenger is an explosive tale that will keep you riveted in suspense."--Container.
