Peter Hale, attorney, made the mistake of crossing his father, one of Portland's most powerful lawyers.

Now without an inheritance or job, he finds himself as a public defender in a small town.

His client, a mentally retarded man, is accused of homicide, and is facing the death penalty. Peter must find the strength to face his own demons and find the truth about his client.
