Retribution
The screenplay.
Based on the book Cap co-authored with Kevin Ready, TWA 800 - Accident or Incident?, this screenplay transforms the central hypothesis into an intense, gripping story. Blooming from the tragic accidental shoot down of Iran Air Flight 655 in 1988 and the fertile soil of fundamentalist and extremist hatreds, an operation of retribution is initiated. US Navy Captain Judy Weston, a senior, career, naval intelligence officer, sees signs of a building storm. Weston and her colleagues struggle to place seemingly disassociated facts into a context. As a picture begins to emerge from the haze, Weston suspects malfeasance that solidifies in the shocking events of 17 July 1996. Everyone, from the White House, to law enforcement, to the aviation accident investigators, and of course the intelligence community, work hard to connect the dots, to find the linkage, but the reach never finds sufficient contact to allow action.
