Plot Synopsis

CLARICE is a one-hour drama series that focuses on the untold personal story of FBI Agent Clarice Starling as she returns to the field in 1993, following the events of "The Silence of the Lambs." A year after rescuing Catherine Martin from the horror of Buffalo Bill's basement, Clarice gets an urgent assignment from Catherine's mother, Attorney General Ruth Martin, to join the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (VICAP) in the investigation of three serial killings. Brilliant and vulnerable, Clarice's bravery gives her an inner light that draws monsters and madmen to her. However, her complex psychological makeup that comes from a challenging childhood empowers her to begin to find her voice while working in a man's world, as well as escape the family secrets that have haunted her throughout her life.
