Ben Harris is a talented news photographer whose job puts him where the action is—a job that costs him his marriage and his family. His ex-wife marries his editor and boss. For the sake of his two children, Harris swallows his pride and offers his hand in friendship. Then his best friend is killed by the blast of a concealed bomb in Harris's surveillance van. He looks into the stories Gallagher was investigating to find the killer—and the target.

Frames Per Second is the story of a flawed but good man trying to make the best of a bad situation. Trying to uncover the truth of his friend's death, trying to keep his family together, trying to reconcile with the new man in their lives—and, ultimately, fighting desperately to keep them alive.
