Josie Bates was done with the law; the law wasn't done with her.

Josie Bates abandoned her fast-track career when her spectacular Los Angeles courtroom win became a devastating personal tragedy. Now, working at a small practice in Hermosa Beach, California, Josie rebuilds her life, opening herself to Archer, an emotionally vulnerable ex-cop, and Hannah, a troubled teen. But the tranquility of beach life is no protection, and Josie is thrust back into high stakes law where it is lethal to lose. With twists and turns, cliff hangers and red herrings, this suspense-filled series explores the dark side of the law, the strength of real love, the intrusion of politics, the unbreakable bonds of family, and the immense power of the righteous few who stand strong in the face of pure evil.
