A woman stumbles onto
a dark road in rural Oregon--tortured, battered, and bound. She tells a
horrific story about being kidnapped, then tortured, until she finally
managed to escape. She was the lucky one--two other women, with similar
burns and bruises, were found dead.
The surviving victim
identifies the house where she was held captive and the owner, Alex
Mason--a prominent local attorney--is arrested. Although he loudly
insists upon his innocence, his wife's statements about his sexual
sadism and the physical evidence found at the scene, his summer home, is
damning.
Regina Barrister is a legendary criminal defense
attorney, known as "The Sorceress" for her courtroom victories. But
she's got a secret, one that threatens her skill, her reputation, and,
most of all, her clients. And she's agreed to take on the seemingly
impossible task of defending Alex Mason.
