This was a solid courtroom drama! The town's golden girl and rising star is murdered and her boyfriend, the football star with a troubled past, is the prime suspect. When defense attorney Bo Haynes takes on the case, the entire town is salty about him being on "the wrong side", even though Bo is firmly convinced of his innocence. My only problem is that I didn't realize it was the second in a series when I impulsively grabbed it at the library ?
