Superstar defense attorney Joseph Antonelli comes out of retirement not to defend but to prosecute—his job will be to send a deputy district attorney to death row for a murder-for-hire. But in a torrid case of violence, adultery, and betrayal, lies compound lies and finally one murder leads to another. Suddenly Antonelli knows in this case the wheels of justice are warped by money and power.
