He couldn’t save his reputation, his marriage, or his career-but he’s dead-set on saving a friend framed for murder . . . Divorced, disbarred, and broke. That’s where former defense attorney Mick Ward found himself after a drug-fueled collapse, and now all he wants is a quiet life. But when he discovers a body on his friend Elliott’s property, Mick has to get involved. Because the body belongs to a rival from Elliott’s criminal past, and someone’s planted a gun in his house. Currently a Black Lives Matter activist running for Portland’s city council, Elliott suspects he’s been targeted by vengeful cops. But the worst is yet to come, and with Mick unable to practice law, he’ll have to work around the system any way he can to help his friend . . .
