Leah Collier worked hard in her academic and professional life until she built what seemed like a normal life. She had a prestigious job as a defense attorney, an excellent daughter in school, and a very understanding relationship with her ex-husband. Her life was as normal as she had always hoped.

But behind Leigh's normal life lies a childhood far from ordinary... a childhood stained with heinous secrets, not to mention the betrayal that shattered it, and ultimately, it was torn apart by a violent and devastating crime.

Without realizing it, she was assigned a case by a client. She was asked to defend a wealthy man accused of rape. It was a sensitive case and one of the most important cases she had ever been assigned. It was a case that could take her career to the next level if she won. But when she met the defendant, she realized that his choice of her as a lawyer in his case was no coincidence. She knew him, he knew her, and most importantly, he knew what had happened twenty years ago, and why Leah had spent the past two decades running from the past.

If she doesn't clear him, her loss will be greater than the case itself, and the only person who can help her is her ostracized sister, Callie. She's the last person Leigh would think of turning to for help, but suddenly she realizes she has no other choice.
