Sleuthing defense lawyer Ruby Miller thinks she's seen and done it all. Until a case comes in that seems more and more like one of family lawyer Cassandra Dayton's beloved horror flicks. For Ruby, a lot about her murder client Susan's case doesn't make sense. Like why her husband, Jerry, is the one in the morgue--not Susan.

Ruby relies on her instincts to work her cases. But she resists them as they lead her to getting involved with Emilio Martin, Spanish billionaire--and the tech consultant in Ruby's murder case. As the case heats up, seduction and passion shoot sparks between Ruby and Emilio. The simple becomes the complex as Ruby and Emilio discover connections between this case and their own painful, shadowy pasts.

As Ruby and her team uncover the truth one layer at a time, the case gets more complicated. The prime eyewitness is none other than Stuart Johnston, Kaye County Attorney. He is doing all within his power to send Susan to super-max Mardova. But Ruby Miller doesn't let senseless protocol, prestigious titles, or grave danger deter her from freeing her client from the cages that hold Susan captive. Ruby will do whatever it takes to pinpoint who wants her client in Mardova.

Or dead . . .
