This story starts with the rape of a young black girl: Nikki Robinson is cleaning the mansion on Beach Road owned by the Merrick family, when the owner's son assaults her. Then...
more...three teenage boys are shot dead on the beach - one is Michael Merrick, and one of the black kids accused of the murders is Nikki's half-brother, Eli. Defending them isn't going to be easy. No witness to the murders can be found. The rich local community don't want any murky secrets revealed about life in the Hamptons. And Tom and Kate, the two lawyers working on the case, haven't exactly been on good terms since their affair broke up.

Full review
Having only started to read James Patterson books, this is my 4th book of his. Thoroughly enjoyable. Enjoyed the fact that the chapters were from each individual character. You became that character throughout the book. So we have Tom Dunleavy the lawyer, Kate Costello his lost love (also a lawyer) and then the suspect Dante Halleyville who is charged with the murder of three of Tom's friends. Although starting with the rape of a young black cleaner, then going onto the argument at the courts. It is not until the end of the book that you realise who the real killer is. A good twist to this story. I couldn't put this book down. I never did guess who the killer was. Would recommend that all should read it.
