A young observant Jewish woman dealing with an unhappy marriage desperately wants a divorce from her abusive husband. In order to later remarry in a ceremony that is recognized under Jewish law and have children, she must be granted a Jewish divorce. However, her husband has refused to grant her a Jewish divorce out of petty vindictiveness.
When her husband is soon found murdered in the marital home, the young woman becomes the prime suspect even though there is no evidence of her guilt. She is soon arrested and charged in his murder.
As her lawyers zealously fight on her behalf, an attempt is made by the son of a Korean crime lord to kidnap her children in exchange for a ransom of twenty million dollars which her late husband is alleged to have mysteriously misappropriated from someone having an offshore bank account who reportedly died twenty years ago. As a consequence, the FBI is now involved in this case, with its agents conducting criminal investigations going back several decades that implicate fugitives from the law who are presumed to have died years ago.
With the FBI diligently pursuing a myriad of mysterious characters whose identities are cloaked in secrecy, the author will leave the reader guessing as to how one man's random murder is related to an international criminal conspiracy that involves tens of millions of dollars. The reader will experience a rollercoaster ride consisting of countless surprises until the shocking outcome is finally revealed.
