Death row prisoner Scottie Pinkerton has been convicted of brutally murdering his wife, and it is on Steve's shoulders to exonerate him. Poring through the court proceedings and transcripts is tedious, and the evidence against Scottie appears insurmountable. Still, Steve finds a discrepancy in the evidence that could change everything--but he can't do it alone. He is lucky to have the assistance of a top-notch private investigator and an attractive computer forensic specialist. But when he begins to receive death threats from an unknown sender, it is evident that Scottie Pinkerton's life is not the only one on the line. Can Steve use his experience and intuition to exonerate Scottie and protect his own future? Brace yourself for this propulsive crime thriller.
