THE UNFORGETTABLE LEGAL THRILLER FROM THE LEGENDARY LYNDA LA PLANTE

Identical and brutal assaults on three women. One woman survives to give a detailed description of her attacker.

The police arrest a suspect, Damon Morton, confident he is their man. But three of his employees admit to the crimes, and Morton's wife and girlfriend each provide him with an alibi.

They all declare Damon Morton innocent. The police know he did it. But if people lie under oath in a court of law - who can the jury believe?
