When a local waitress and her five-year-old daughter are found killed, Wes Harding - a former classmate of Kali's who had a reputation as Silver Creek's worst troublemaker - becomes the prime suspect. Kali's long-time legal mentor - and the town's leading criminal attorney - asks Kali to assist him on the case. She agrees, but is stunned when Harding refuses to help in his own defense - and won't explain why. Kali soon discovers that the murdered waitress was harboring secrets of her own - which included unexpected ties to some of Silver Creek's most influential citizens, as well as a mysterious link to a long-ago tragedy. As Kali races against time - and a ruthlessly ambitious prosecutor - it will take all her deductive skills and legal savvy to untangle the threads of one of the most complex cases of her career. But even she doesn't suspect how close to real danger she is - or how much she'll have to risk to bring a cunning killer to justice.
