‘A great thriller: breakneck pacing, electrifying courtroom scenes, and a cast of richly crafted characters’ – People
Influential San Francisco attorney Mark Dooher – affluent, powerful, totally in control – is accustomed to getting what he wants. When he meets a beautiful young attorney, he decides he wants her, too. But Mark Dooher is a married man, and as legal counsel for San Francisco’s Archdiocese, divorce is not exactly an option.
