A lawyer in desperate need of a thriving law practice, he rents a room from a woman named Linda—who is herself a recovering alcoholic. The two fall in love and settle into a period of relative bliss only to be interrupted by the arrival of Scooter, Frank’s counselor from rehab, when he pays them a visit…a visit that turns into a permanent stay. While investigating a case that ends up claiming the life of a young priest and family friend, Frank uncovers a vein of corruption in Goodville that extends throughout its entire justice system. There’s a fortune on the line and when the money disappears…and so does Frank. One surprising turn after another means solving this mystery may end up costing at least one person more than they're willing to part with.
