A finalist for the LA Times Book Prize
A little girl, snatched from her bed in the dead of night...
They knew who killed her. They couldnโt prove it. 26 years later, her brother Sammy doesnโt care about proof. He only cares about justice. Now, only his childhood best friend, attorney Jason Kolarich, can save Sammy from a life sentence for killing a killer.
To defend Sammy, Jason must do what authorities could not, decades agoโprove the guilt of the pedophile who killed Sammyโs sister. But a mysterious benefactor, โMr. Smith,โ suddenly appears, offering money, resources, even alibis for Sammyโs defense. And he will stop at nothingโthreatening the lives of Jason and his familyโto control the outcome of the case. As the trial draws near, Jason races against time to save his family from Mr. Smithโs team and his friend Sammy from life in prison, while two crimes, decades apart, converge in a stunning verdict.
