Presumed Guilty - Mark McGinn - Bog

With a sour taste in her mouth after a client's acquittal, feisty attorney Sasha Stace, grabs the offer of a coveted judgeship. But the baby girl she adopted out thirty years ago, unexpectedly enters her life, pleading for help to defend Sasha's ex-lover, accused of a brutal murder. The trial pits her against a deceitful and grudge-holding prosecutor while Sasha's investigator, a man she yearns for, is convinced her ex is guilty. In a trial of twists and setbacks in and out of the courtroom, achieving justice requires Sasha to be dogged in her determination to uncover others' dark secrets, but this will leave her exposed to paying a terrible price.
