Synopsis

When a 22-year-old law student is found brutally murdered, her father comes undone - and rightfully so. In a fit of rage, Donald Sales accuses Eric Lipton, his daughter's arrogant and brilliant professor, of killing her. Then, after an article of the victim's blood - soaked clothing is found in Professor Lipton's possession, he hires attorney Casey Jordan to represent him. To Jordan Sales' violent history makes him a more logical suspect, and the skilful attorney discredits him on the witness stand. As the jury finds lipton not guilty, Casey is stunned when the professor whispers to Jordon that he did it. Weeks later, as more bodies turn up, Jordon must decide whether to uphold her legal oath to protect her client...or join forces with an unlikely ally to bring a demented killer to justice.
