But when his latest client gets charged with felony arson, the result is a career-making case he has to win. The last thing he needs is to fall for his key witness.

When a high-profile contract with the state falls in his lap, he can't screw it up. Even if it means ignoring his growing desire for the hotshot attorney who hired him. Convinced their client is innocent, Mark and Lukas team up to investigate the crime. With the trial looming and every lead gone cold, they work relentlessly to uncover the truth.
