SeriesLaura Chastain #1
Atlanta lawyer Laura Chastain has developed a hard-earned reputation for waging uncompromising courtroom battles, inciting tabloid headlines, and making enemies on both sides of the law. Now, she is about to plunge straight into the heart of Atlanta's most controversial trial: defending an unscrupulous white cop indicted for killing a black suspect held in custody. But if Laura is willing to believe detective Jeff Williams, who has no alibi but insists he's innocent, then she must also believe the unthinkable: that Williams knew something damning about his brothers-in-blue, and that a deadly cover-up of murder and corruption is operating at the highest levels of the Atlanta police force.As Laura tries to untangle the web of lies that obscure guilt and innocence, her future hangs in the balance -- because if Williams is lying, it could cost Laura her career...and if he's telling the truth, it could cost her her life.
