While trying three defendants for robbery, Joanne Kuhlman discovers a far more serious crime may be unfolding. One of the defendants is developmentally disabled. His attorney and mother insist he was cruelly exploited by his crime partners. When the young man disappears, Joanne fears he may have been murdered in a ruthless act to silence him. Her sympathies for this defendant lead her to entangle herself with his attractive attorney and compromise her career so the truth may be revealed.

Nancy Taylor Rosenberg’s fourteen-year career in law enforcement included jobs with the Dallas Police Department, the New Mexico State police, the Ventura Police, and the Ventura County Probation Department, where she was a superior court investigator. A New York Times bestselling author, she has won acclaim for her novels. They have been translated into almost every language and have been bestsellers in many countries. Her writing program for inner city youths, Voices of Tomorrow, has received national attention. She lives in the Los Angeles area.
District Attorney Joanne Kuhlman faces personal crises and ethical dilemmas as she prosecutes three young robbery suspects. Narrator Laural Merlington skillfully depicts characters ranging from Joanne's troubled teenaged daughter to a seasoned CIA agent. She shines in vocalizing developmentally disabled Ian Decker, who unwittingly is drawn into the criminal activities of the Ramirez brothers. Joanne risks her career as she gains sympathy for Ian's plight and is drawn to his attractive attorney. Merlington delights in her character-ization of Trudy, a wanna-be actress, and leaves hanging the life-or-death question: What role is Trudy really playing?
