Elisabeth Sharman has a secret.
As a senior solicitor with the Australian Capital Territory Legal Aid Office she's defending a 19 year old with amnesia. He can't remember committing the murder for which he's on trial. Or says he can't.
Robert Murphy has a problem: Elisabeth.
He's her instructing solicitor and she's not playing by the legal rules. She's new to the office. No-one knows her modus operandi. But it's more, much more, than an unusual methodology.
She's using her feminine wiles with him - to good effect - and he's afraid her motives aren't pure.
Will the secret, when revealed, explain everything? Or will the result be catastrophic?

There were plenty of appreciative listeners and they were obviously popular regulars. As they neared the stage Dean spotted Robert and stuck his thumb up. Robert raised his glass in acknowledgment. As they had done in the restaurant they occupied themselves looking around, the difference here being that they were forced against each other by the crowd. Robert had his free arm around her shoulders to shield her from the rougher excesses and she seemed not to mind. Or notice. Elisabeth stared around his shoulder at the noisy moving bodies, his arm warm across her back. The music died.
