Book Synopsis

When law clerk Grace Homan accuses her boss-a respected judge and rising legal star-of a decades-old murder, private investigator Dan Lord is drawn into the most dangerous case of his career. A series of clues leads Dan to South Carolina, where his inquiries stir up powerful enemies. Ignoring warnings not to ruffle the feathers of old money, Dan faces betrayal, faded memories, and falsified records. Defying threats and an overzealous reporter, Dan receives help from a collection of unlikely allies-including a convicted killer-in a race to uncover the truth before it's too late for his client, and the country.
