Jane Smith is running out of time . . . Her repeat client Rob Jacobson is the unluckiest of
the unlucky. No sooner is he accused of killing a family of three in the Hamptons than a second
family is gunned down. He says he's being set up - again. Despite the odds Jane believes him.
Now she must mount the most complex investigation of her career. But she's facing her own
battle too. A terminal medical condition. The defence may never rest.
