Harper must defend Damien, who has been arrested for the murder of his birth father, Josh Roland. Harper knows that Damien didn''t do it. He couldn''t do it. Yet his past comes to haunt him, as Harper finds out things about Damien that she never knew. The victim, Josh Roland, was, for many years, a bastard. He sexually harassed most of his female employees and was a serial rapist. He was also involved with many shady and crooked financial deals that broke the many contractors who had the misfortune of dealing with him. In short, there were many, many people who wanted this man dead. So why was Damien made the prime target of the investigation?

In the meantime, her tween daughters are giving her fits - even Abby has been acting out lately. They''re 13, at the most awkward age imaginable, and Harper is at the end of her rope with them. Throw in some romantic troubles with her longtime beau, Axel, and you have one seriously frazzled lawyer.
