The pulse-pounding true story of charismatic vigilante Faye Yager, who built a vast underground network that hid hundreds of mothers and children, saving them from the alleged abuse of husbands and fathers when a broken court system would not.
Faye ushers April and her daughter Mandy into her underground operation to escape, but her work lands her in the crosshairs of law enforcement.
As Faye’s criminal trial begins, the origin story of the Underground is told and Faye’s complexities are revealed.
As Faye’s trial continues, we look back on the “Satanic Panic” craze that swept America and the effects throughout Faye’s Underground.
In the aftermath of the trial, Faye finds herself and her network with enemies and critics and a newspaper article about the Underground leads to be Faye’s biggest conflict yet.
Faye reckons with a lawsuit filed by a multi-millionaire father, and the future of the Underground hangs in the balance.
