Overview
Peter Shields is a successful business attorney who works for powerful clients and lives in the world of the privileged. But when he is accused of a crime of passion-a charge he doesn't dispute-his own lawyer asks him to help with the defense of a prostitute living on the streets who has been charged with murder.For reasons he can't explain, Shields accepts the case and makes a life-altering decision... a decision from which he learns that there is redemption even for the damned, even for himself, and that forgiveness follows its own course.This suspenseful courtroom drama, by a lawyer who tried dozens murder cases, offers a realistic look into a homicide trial and the attorneys, detectives, judges, and people caught in the justice system. This story of success and failure, temptation and resistance, fortune and loss, affirms that at the end of suffering, hope rises above all else.
