- Libby Parsons is happily married to Nick and has a wonderful son, Matty. One day while spending the night on their boat, Libby wakes up and finds Nick gone and blood all over the boat and a bloody knife. When an investigation begins, it's discovered that Nick was financial trouble and had a two million dollar insurance policy. Though claims that she knew nothing about it, she would be convicted and sent to prison. She entrusts Matty to her friend, Angela and it's during one of her calls to Matty that she learns that Nick is alive. And she also learns that since she's already been convicted of killing Nick already, she can kill him and not be charged. After seven she's paroled and placed in the custody of Travis, a parole officer. Parsons

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Not a successful thriller, but with some nice dramatic scenes along with the dumb mystery and contrived conclusion."
-
"There are a few ingenious zig zags in its otherwise by-the-numbers plot...but what keeps you interested... is the sheer movie-star presence of the actors in the lead roles."
-
"So riddled with plot holes and implausible actions, you can't help feeling insulted by it."
-
"For all its familiar conventions and hoary improbabilities, Double Jeopardy is a relatively efficient model of its kind."
-
"A comically unbelievable story that leaves almost no impression except what a sham our legal system is."
-
"Bad in a good way if you appreciate this sort of silly thriller."
