520 _aA New York Times Bestselling Author -- For the first time since 2009, defense attorney Dismas Hardy returns to defend a close friend against murder charges in John Lescroart's most suspenseful and intricately plotted novel to date. Brittany McGuire is the twenty- three- year- old daughter of Susan Weiss and Moses McGuire, and defense attorney Dismas Hardy's niece. Popular and pretty, Brittany has always moved easily from one boyfriend to the next. But recent ex Rick Jessup can't seem to get over her. His abuse escalates, culminating in a terrible night when Brittany is raped. Within twenty- four hours, Jessup is dead, Moses is the prime suspect, and Dismas has been hired to defend him.
