Thriller Legal

Jordan La Fontaine is a 41-year-old Assistant District

Attorney in Portland, Oregon. She has become a workaholic

since the death of her defense attorney husband, Eric,

from a heart attack less than a year earlier. She is left

alone with two teenage children, Trevor, 19, and Kendre,

14.

On the job, Jordan is vying with fellow Assistant District

Attorney, Jerrod Wresler, for the position of Bureau Chief

of the Homicide Division. Off the job, she has begun an

affair with her late husband's law partner, Simon McNeil.

These worlds collide when Jordan finds herself in the

middle of two homicide cases. She is trying the case

against African-American homicide detective Graham Turner,

who is charged with brutally murdering his white ex-wife.

Meanwhile, when her son is charged with murdering a young

couple, Jordan asks Simon to defend him against prosecutor

Jerrod Wresler.

Jordan then begins her own investigation to prove her

son's innocence. It leads all the way to the D.A.'s office

and her chief adversary, Jerrod Wresler. The twists and

turns and unexpected results of Jordan's double duty come

to a head in a heart pounding, dramatic conclusion.
