The Hanged Man(1975)

The Hanged Man is a thriller series following Lew Burnett, a wealthy businessman who fakes his own death after a near-fatal attack. Rather than resume his old life, Burnett goes undercover to uncover the truth: which of his trusted inner circle—friends and business partners alike—orchestrated the attempts on his life. As he navigates his hidden existence, Burnett must carefully gather evidence while staying one step ahead of those who want him truly dead. The series explores themes of betrayal and paranoia, examining how wealth and power can breed dangerous enemies within one's closest relationships. With each revelation, the stakes grow higher and Burnett's carefully constructed cover becomes increasingly fragile.
