A Legal Thriller with Life-or-Death Stakes
Fifteen years after escaping the corrupt Bendini law firm, Mitch McDeere has rebuilt his life as a partner at prestigious Scully & Pershing in Manhattan. His corner office on the forty-eighth floor overlooks Central Park - a far cry from his humble Kentucky beginnings. Despite his success negotiating billion-dollar mergers for Fortune 500 clients, Mitch maintains modest habits, taking the subway instead of black sedans and living in a Brooklyn brownstone with his wife Abby and eight-year-old twin sons. The comfortable life he's constructed begins to unravel when a pro bono death row case brings him back to Memphis - the city he fled under deadly circumstances years ago. Though the inmate mysteriously dies before Mitch arrives, this brief encounter with America's shadowy justice system foreshadows the international intrigue to come. Returning to Memphis forces Mitch to confront ghosts he's long avoided - walking through the renovated Bendini Building, passing landmarks that trigger vivid memories of his narrow escape. Over lunch with Lamar, a former colleague who spent twenty-seven months in federal prison after the firm's collapse, Mitch reveals his untold journey: escaping by boat to the Caymans, living on the run with money taken from the firm, eventually settling in Cortona, Italy where they rented a cottage for 300 euros monthly. After three years immersed in Italian culture, they moved to London where Mitch's Harvard credentials opened doors at Scully's office there. Two years later, with Abby pregnant, they returned to America.
