Two murders. Two trials. And two kids who were not exactly guilty. The odd part is that the defendant in the first case is the lawyer in the second, which occurs in the same courtroom against the same prosecutor fifteen years later.When young defense attorney David Stillman takes an alcohol-fueled hiatus from his law practice, he meets Michaela, an exotic older woman who gradually pulls the story of David's haunted and past out of him as a romance develops. While the relation by David of the childhood saga of he and his violent group of teenage friends proves cathartic, his relationship with the eccentric Michaela leads David down a bizarre path that leads him to question everything he thought he knew about his life - and the murder for which he narrowly escaped conviction years ago.

Not on my watch... So declared Montana Senator Beauregard Bryant when the small town of Twin Rivers, Montana sought a lucrative federal contract to house Guantanamo Bay prisoners in its languishing prison. Undaunted, newly elected town Mayor Phoenix Jamborsky hires local lawyer Gabriel Lantagne to help secure the controversial contract against the wishes of the powers that be in Montana. But the nationally publicized issue lures a threat worse than bankruptcy towards Twin Rivers. Gabe slowly learns that the town's old secrets, Phoenix's ambition, and forces beyond his knowledge blur the line between friend and foe, and that Phoenix s prison plan has changed far more than the town s bottom line. As national politics and small town mysteries speed towards mutual resolution, the fate of Twin Rivers may not be decided by Senators, Mayors, and lawyers, but a young man from Pakistan with a politics all his own.
