He invests everything he has to buy the property and raises the rest of the money from old friends-friends he once defended in court. If his plan doesn't succeed, he stands to lose more than his life savings. 'On opening day, things go wrong, and those responsible wind up dead. Detectives Sam Howard and Jessica Chalmers begin to wonder... Is the Mayor a possible victim, or is he the prime suspect?'
