Samenvatting:

Justice is blind—but vengeance sees all. Jedidiah "Jed" Bouvier, a weary idealist and recovering alcoholic, is defending Dexter Wayne Jones—the most reviled man in the county. A confirmed serial rapist and suspected murderer who is a copycat of the infamous Golden State Killer, Jones is accused of having slaughtered a family decades earlier. But despite damning evidence, the first trial ended in a hung jury. Jed and his co-counsel, Tara Singh, battled relentless prosecutor Catalina "Cat" Galvez in the high-stakes retrial, but sinister forces are moving behind the scenes, driven by a ruthless desire for justice the courts are unable to deliver. Suddenly, a juror from the first trial is murdered; another disappears, and Jed's neighbor, a hulking ex-cop with a dark secret, seems peculiarly interested in the proceedings. Tensions are high as the second jury becomes hopelessly deadlocked. Meanwhile, Jed's girlfriend, a beautiful woman with a stunning secret of her own, mysteriously vanishes. Will a killer walk free? Set in fictional Murrieta County, California, north of Sacramento, what begins as a legal drama spirals into psychological suspense, as Jed uncovers the true identity of the woman he loves—and the nightmarish truth about delayed justice, retribution, and the price of idealism in a broken system.
