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?

Cut off like that Remo's shoulders sagged, he took an uncertain step towards her, stopped, turned, and dragged his feet along the beach to return to the house.


Joe steered the car onto the road, but not before saying, 'They've got us by the prick, mate.'


'Coming and going,' Robert said, more to himself than Joe.
