It begins with a murder in the town square. During the investigation, two police officers lose their lives in the most insidious of ways, with an explosive-inducing secretion, buried within the corpse of the man that detonates. But who could be capable of such a twisted crime? The police believe they know, and round up their suspects, yet in a land where everyone is due a fair trial, Samuel Kane finds himself defending the murderers, and desperately trying to get to the truth of what happened...and why they did it. The intent is far darker than how it first appears. Samuel is good. He’s sharp. Savvy. He connects well with a jury, yet he’s tenacious. He will find the truth, but if the truth sets everyone free, will he be able to live with himself?
