Аннотация

Simon Latch is a lawyer in rural Virginia, making just enough to pay his bills while trying to hold his family together. Then into his office walks Eleanor Barnett, an elderly widow in need of a new will. Apparently, her husband left her a small fortune, and no one knows about it.
At first Simon can’t believe his good luck: He’s finally hooked a client rich enough to turn his life around. He works quietly to keep her wealth under the radar, but soon her story begins to crack. When she is hospitalized after a bad car accident, Simon realizes that nothing is as it seems, and he finds himself on trial for a crime he swears he didn’t commit: murder.
Simon knows he’s innocent. But he also knows the prosecutor’s circumstantial evidence could send him to prison for the rest of his life. As his trial progresses, he senses the jury turning against him and knows there is only one way to save himself.
