Politics. Power. Murder.

If you want something bad enough, would you kill for it?

Marcus Blanchard has worked for years to get to this night to the eve of the Eleventh District Congressional race in Cleveland. He's determined to oust long-reigning, crooked politicians Julius McGee and William McLaughlin, and has asked his favorite law-school professor, Edward Mead, to witness the victory.

But just as the results are about to be announced, Marcus disappears...and a woman is murdered. Worse, Alontay Johnson is his old girlfriend, and he's caught crouching over her body. Did he strangle her, or was he framed? And who will believe him?

It's up to the quirky, arthritic Ed Mead, who hasn't been in a courtroom in years, to defend his friend and client...while the State of Ohio seeks the death penalty.

Cutting-edge. Quirky. Suspenseful. Gutsy.

This legal thriller could be ripped from today's headlines...but also grips the heart.
