Synopsis

EVIL INTENTIONS COME

When Pete Scarcelli agrees to represent sultry Justine Kingman in divorcing her husband Ben—the richest man in town—he has no idea what he’s getting into. But he soon finds out that Justine has more plans than just divorce for her husband—deadly plans. When Pete initially refuses to go along, Justine reveals a secret from her past that changes his mind.

As he begins to plot with Justine, Pete also has to navigate around Sally Carruthers, a prosecutor and Pete’s foe in the courtroom, but a potential lover outside of it. Her father, the chief of police, doesn’t want Pete anywhere near his daughter. And then there’s Jack Greese, a hardboiled private eye who’s not above working both sides of the street.

As Pete is drawn deeper and deeper into blackmail and murder, he learns the hard way that only the devil stands between him and Justine. And the devil is a slippery fellow indeed.
