Now he s come out of retirement to win again. Only this time his job is not to defend, it is to prosecute to send a deputy district attorney to death row for the crime of murder for hire. But in a torrid case of violence, adultery, and betrayal, lies compound lies, truths defy belief, and finally, one murder leads to another. Suddenly Antonelli knows that in this case the wheels of justice are warped by money and power. And putting the right person away isn t just a matter of law, it s a matter of survival. . . .
