Perfect for you if...

You love legal thrillers with real stakes where the lawyer's personal history matters as much as the case law.
You appreciate Southern Gothic settings where charm masks something darker underneath.
You want a series opener that hooks you with two parallel cases and a ticking clock.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer courtroom drama that stays in the courtroom rather than sprawling into personal vendettas.
You're looking for a standalone novel, not the first book in a series.
You want your protagonists morally uncomplicated or entirely sympathetic.

About this book

Dean Lincoln, a big-city defense lawyer, returns to his hometown of Beaufort after years away, drawn back by small-town life and a family matter. He immediately takes on two cases: defending a wealthy teenager charged with murder and a poor teenager accused of arson. Both clients claim innocence and believe the system is working against them. In this Southern setting, where guilt is often determined outside the courtroom, Lincoln's return has awakened an old grudge. As he works to uncover the truth, the situation grows increasingly dangerous, threatening his career, his clients, and his safety.
