Authors / Karen Slaughter Publication Year / 2022 Format / Paperback Cover Type / Regular Number of Pages / 590 Publisher / Jalis Publishing Book Summary "Leah Koller" has strived in her academic and professional life until she built what seemed like a normal life, with a prestigious job as a defense lawyer, an outstanding daughter in school, and a very understanding relationship with her ex-husband. Her life was as ordinary as she always hoped. But that normal life of "Leah" hides a childhood far from ordinary life... a childhood stained with heinous secrets, not to mention the betrayal that shattered her, and ultimately; she was torn apart by a violent and destructive crime. Unknowingly, she was assigned a case for one of her clients, defending a wealthy man accused of rape. It is a sensitive and one of the most important cases she has been tasked with, a case that could elevate her professional life to a high level if she wins it. But when she meets the defendant, she realizes that his choosing her as his lawyer in his case is no coincidence. She knows him, and he knows her, and more importantly; he knows what happened twenty years ago, and why "Leah" spent the past two decades fleeing from the past. If she does not acquit him, her loss in the case itself will be nothing compared to what she might lose. The only person who can help her is her outcast sister, "Kali," and she is the last person Leah considers seeking help from. But suddenly, she realizes that she has no other option.
