: Late one August night, pregnant Jessie Martin, Esq. answers her cellphone and hears the last thing she ever expected -Terrence Butterfield, a popular high school teacher and her mentor/confidante, admitting that he has just killed someone and requesting her assistance. No good deed goes unpunished when the district attorney accuses Jessie of interfering with Terrence’s arrest, the defense attorney alleges that she violated the attorney-client privilege due Terrence, and her firm suspends her for her “part” in the murder of their largest client’s teenage son. Complicating matters, the prosecutor is her law school flame and her fiancée, disputing her loyalty to Terrence, moves out. Trapped within the whirlwind of the homicide investigation, Jessie relies upon her wits and instincts to untangle the betrayals and the shocking truths behind the murder, while fighting to preserve her career, her relationships, her life and that of her unborn child.
