Jane Smith is the best lawyer in town... but she's on a deadline.
Her repeat client, Rob Jacobson, seems to attract misfortune wherever he goes. Only just acquitted of a triple homicide is he accused of brutally killing another family. And this time, the evidence against him is even more damning.
Jacobson insists he's being framed - again. Despite the odds, Jane believes him.
Jane must now tackle the most complex case of her career whilst battling an even bigger threat. A terminal medical condition.
Will she uncover the truth before it's too late? Or will the clock run out on her final case?
