When military veteran Van Booker is accused of murdering her husband and toddler in a case the press has dubbed “The Easter Bunny Killings”, the case against her appears strong. The circumstances surrounding the crime–a troubled marriage, no evidence of a break-in, a weak alibi, and Van’s well-honed special forces skills–are more than enough to arouse suspicion. Add her complex mental and emotional history to the mix, and she rises to suspect number one.The struggling law firm of Brooks, Valenti and u0026 Williams reluctantly agrees to defend Van, even though its beleaguered lawyers recognize the monumental challenge of delivering an effective defense on a shoe-string budget. A personal tragedy and escalating demands quickly stretch their meager resources to the breaking point, leaving only Tony Valenti to soldier on against a well-prepared and ruthless prosecution team armed with seemingly unlimited means and manpower. Tony cobbles together an unlikely team of allies, desperately searching for that key witness or bit of evidence that might turn the tide as the approaching trial date looms ever nearer.When explosive new revelations shake even Tony’s confidence in their case and their client, the already long odds of saving Van become astronomical … even Tony doubts his client’s innocence. It will require every ounce of Tony’s considerable legal skill, tenacity, and courtroom wizardry to come out on top in the biggest challenge of his career.
