Leslie Woodhouses most exciting days should be behind her. In a past life, she was a defense attorney with a reputation for finding loopholes in high-profile cases. Now, shes enjoying a modest retirement in Florida in a seaside condo with her mild-mannered husband, Robert. The only things that get her heart rate up now are late-night coffees, playful banter with her beloved older sister, and the news: the serial killer ravaging Floridas Gulf Coast has just made his first mistake. An eight-year-old girl has seen his face and lived. To Leslie, the murderer is little more than a morbid fascinationuntil she comes home to flashing police lights. Robert is arrested, accused of being the Gulf Coast Killer. Leslie is convinced of his innocence, and despite warnings not to represent her husband, she starts work on his defense. But as she unravels the facts, she cant shake the unanswered questions. What was Roberts DNA doing at the scene of the crime? And if shes right to defend Robert, then who is the real Gulf Coast Killer, and why is he framing her husband?
