A number of witnesses saw supermodel Chrissy Bernhardt walk into a bar and shoot her own father. One of the onlookers was Jake Lassiter, who was sitting one bar stool away. Now the ex-pro football linebacker-turned-trial lawyer has been hired to get Chrissy acquitted, which is dumping Lassiter into the middle of a dangerous mess involving child abuse, crooked shrinks, shady dealings and big money. But the trouble really begins when he gets too intimately involved with his client--a beautiful femme who may be more fatale than Lassiter bargained for.
