Stolen Valor

Brendan Sawyer, a recently discharged Army Sergeant, faces an uncertain future as he tries to reintegrate into civilian life after years of service. Haunted by the abrupt end to his military career and feeling unmoored, Sawyer returns home to a warm but overwhelming welcome from family and friends. Meanwhile, CID Agent Mallory Hunter, fresh off her observer duties, quickly proves her instincts when she uncovers a web of deception: a wave of impostors forging military records and posing as highly decorated veterans. As Sawyer grapples with the loss of his identity, Mallory’s investigations lead her to confront a sophisticated network of fraudsters, including Duncan Benson—a con artist fabricating valor for private gain—and Karl, a supposed Navy SEAL who manipulates his way into Mallory’s own family. Tension mounts as Mallory exposes these fakes, determined to protect the honor of real heroes like Sawyer, whose sacrifices were all too real. Through intersecting stories of betrayal, resilience, and truth, Stolen Valor explores the silent battles veterans fight off the battlefield—and the moral war waged when honor itself is stolen.
