Prosecutor Ava Knight always plays by the rules.
Until she meets fifteen-year-old Lily Hawthorne, accused of stabbing hotel magnate Michael Osborne in cold blood.
It should be an open-and-shut case. But Ava suspects something everyone else does not:
MICHAEL OSBORNE IS LYING.
Because eighteen years ago, Ava was brutally assaulted. The case went to trial. Her attacker was acquitted.
His name? Michael Osborne.
Now court is in session.
And Ava must decide how far she's willing to go to uncover the truth . . .
