Description
THE GRIPPING LEGAL THRILLER FROM THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF RETRIBUTION
Some fear madness, some people choose it . . .
The defendant: David Marquette. A successful attorney. Devoted father and husband.
The victims: His own wife and three small children.
The plea: Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity.
But is his insanity defence a cover-up for cold-blooded and calculated murders?
And is there a link between him and a string of unsolved homicides across the state?
The trial will take young prosecutor Julia Valenciano on a painful personal journey back into her own past - a past she is trying to forget.
And it will bring her face to face with a future that is so frightening, she's not sure she ever wants to see it.
