Description

Small town Louisiana doctor Daniel Wyatt has everything: a solid marriage, a successful practice, and a prestigious nomination to the post of Surgeon General of the United States. That is, until one weekend of infidelity and an unwanted pregnancy threaten to destroy it all. Plunged into a nightmare of lies and legal manoeuvrings. Wyatt is forced to face the unthinkable. With just one desperate act - one he claims not to have committed-a man, his town and his country are thrust into an explosive legal battle. In an electrifying trial that reverberates with the media frenzy and high emotions of a case that could overturn precedent, Wyatt faces the fight of his life. Not only in court but in a fatal encounter with a madman's bullet.
