Someone is killing lawyers.  Not just lawyers, defense lawyers.  And not just defense lawyers, attorneys who represent drug dealers, rapists, pedophiles and murderers. 

While Detectives Desmond Fine and Frank Costa  try to piece together the evidence in order to find the killer, they  see the victims as bottom-feeders; attorneys who manipulate the law and allow the guilty to go free.

Then Detective Fine’s childhood friend, public defender, Eric Price, is murdered.

Now it’s personal and nothing will stand in Fine’s way to catch the killer.
