On the eve of her retirement,
Georgia attorney Mikala Aulani is as vivacious and vibrant as ever, eagerly
anticipating a happy future with her partner, Ben. But if Kala has learned anything
in thirty-five years of practicing law, it’s that the truth can always surprise
you. And when Adam Star turns up at her office, confessing to the long-ago
murder of his wife, Kala must return to a notorious case that has never stopped
haunting her.
Ten years have passed since
young nurse Sophie Lee was accused of murdering her wealthy patient, Audrey
Star. Kala defended Sophie and had no doubt of her innocence—or of Adam Star’s
guilt—but the prosecution convinced a jury otherwise. Sophie was convicted on a
Tuesday—the day on which every significant event in her life, good or bad,
seems to happen.
Now, on the verge of his
death, Adam exonerates Sophie and also leaves her a huge fortune in atonement.
Released from prison, Sophie retreats to Kala’s house and tries to evade the
media frenzy that surrounds her. Kala is determined to help her client make her
way back into the world and adjust to her new wealth and freedom. Yet for both,
there are still revelations in store—about the nature of redemption, the
strange workings of fate, and the power of forgiveness. And most of all, about
the secrets that hide in every heart—even those we think we know best.
