Dallas Homicide Detective Valentine Justice had spent twenty years chasing murder suspects only to end up becoming one himself... For three months Lamar and Lemuel Sutton had rampaged across Texas and Southern Oklahoma, killing everyone that stepped into their gunsights and stealing millions in the process. Until Valentine had finally tracked them down... After a shootout in a South Dallas basement left Lamar and Lemuel dead and Valentine critically wounded, Val had expected a hero's welcome; instead he had received a disability pension and an unceremonious ejection from the police force under a storm cloud of allegations that he had murdered the Suttons in cold blood. In the four years since his retirement, Val has settled uneasily into a new role as a househusband and Mr. Mom to his twin two year old sons while his wife, Victoria, has continued her career as a prosecutor in the Dallas District Attorney's Office. But when Abby Sutton, Lamar and Lemuel's baby sister, is found brutally murdered on the banks of the Trinity River after accusing Val of hijacking more than fifteen million dollars in stolen cash and gold coins, Val is forced to take up his gun again to defend his family from a murderous crew of peckerwood gangsters while Victoria must face her own doubts about what happened that day in the basement... As Abby Suttons murder investigation proceeds, and the evidence against Valentine mounts, Victoria finds herself crossing the line from prosecutor to defense attorney as she battles dirty cops and crooked lawyers. Soon she is forced to fight for her life when she uncovers a conspiracy that stretches from the highest offices of the Dallas government all the way to Huntsville State Prison.
