Jennifer Witt is a woman who has suffered. Virtually every man in her life as abused her, so who would blame her if one day she struck back? Killed her doctor husband Larry whose strictures and punishments have made her life a living hell. But when Larry is shot dead Jennifer, suspect number one, denies she was ever beaten and consistently refuses to admit she killed him. Dismas Hardy, agreeing to undertake her defence, tends to believe her, especially since her seven year old son, the apparent centre of her life, was also killed.
But as Jennifer's trial - a capital case - continues and Dismas watches his own family life disintegrate under the pressure of her defence, he begins to wonder if his judgement has let him down. And if Jennifer Witt is a cold-blooded childkiller . . .
