What if the justice system got it wrong and you were the last person who could fix it?
Steve Lansford planned on Big Law and a powerful career. Instead, a contract job in criminal habeas law pulls him into a broken system filled with desperate clients and forgotten cases.
When he represents Carlos Vega, a man who pled guilty to a murder he did not commit, Steve uncovers corruption, false confessions, and institutional indifference that reach far beyond one conviction. With witnesses at risk and powerful forces working to keep the truth buried, he must decide what kind of lawyer and man he is willing to be.
A gripping legal thriller about wrongful conviction, moral courage, and the true cost of justice.
