Thriller Legal
Thomas Dennehy, senior prosecutor in Davidson County,
Tennessee, doesn’t recognize Nashville anymore: a decade of
relentless immigration means cops are learning Spanish, and
the DA’s office is looking for Vietnamese translators.
Thomas’s latest case is prosecuting Moses Bol, a Sudanese
refugee who faces the death penalty for killing a white
woman in the Nations, a notorious, racially charged part of
town. Bol’s conviction seems certain, until a university
professor claims Thomas has sent the wrong man to the death
chamber in a previous case. The DA’s office is rocked to its
core, but another blow falls within days: a beautiful and
brilliant anti-death penalty activist mysteriously surfaces
as Bol’s alibi. Bol’s case becomes a lightning rod as protestors on all
sides converge on Nashville, threatening to tear the city
apart. Meanwhile, Bol’s alibi has secrets of her own – and
is terrified of someone working behind the scenes to get
what he wants – even if it means murder.
