He’s sent to Rikers Island to await trial, facing twelve years in prison for perjury and filing false reports.Now Ren and Ares must prove the impossible: that a respected attorney with a perfect reputation has been systematically fabricating evidence for over a decade. That the woman who infiltrated their foundation is a fake identity created from a dead infant’s Social Security number. That the break-in was real-orchestrated by Victoria herself.But Victoria stays three steps ahead. Witnesses are attacked. Evidence disappears. And she maintains perfect plausible deniability while destroying everyone who threatens to expose her.Twelve strangers will decide Ren’s fate.
