A murdered judge. An innocent accused. Justice comes at a deadly price.
Small town defense attorney Leland Munroe isn't afraid to tackle cases others run from. But when a federal judge plunges to his death from a locked courthouse stairwell just before testifying, Leland is pulled into a deadly investigation. Every clue he uncovers drags him deeper into a dark web of deceit.
The FBI arrests Vinny Baptiste, a courthouse janitor with a troubled past and ties to the judge. It looks like an open-and-shut case-except Leland doesn't buy it. The judge had secrets of his own, and the evidence points to a far more influential suspect hiding in plain sight.
As Leland races to uncover the truth and defend an innocent man, the cost of justice grows steep. And the rural retreat that's been a safe haven in the past comes under threat from an unexpected direction.
In a system rigged to protect the powerful, can Leland expose the truth before the killer claims another victim...
