THE LAW HAS FAILED THEM. SEBASTIAN RUDD WILL NOT.

Sebastian Rudd take the cases no one else wants.

As a result, his last office was firebombed - either by drug dealers or cops. And things are about to get even more complicated.

Arch Swanger is a criminal lowlife and the prime suspect in the abduction and presumed murder of the daughter of the assistant chief of police. When Rudd agrees to represent him, Swanger lets him in on a terrible secret.

It's a secret Rudd wishes he never heard - and one that will threaten everything he holds dear.
