What this book is about
Charleston DA Hammond Cross is prosecuting a murder at the height of a summer festival. The suspect has an alibi — and that alibi is a woman named Davee, who Hammond himself met and was immediately drawn to the night in question. The person he wants to protect is now the person he has to investigate. Sandra Brown's southern thriller puts a prosecutor in an impossible position: the truth may free a killer, and the woman he loves may be at the center of it.
