The years have calmed him, he has a new family to think about, and his reputation can't take any more damage. Tommy Molto, convinced of Rusty's guilt the first time round, is wary of taking on this new prosecution. His wife Barbara has died in suspicious circumstances and, once again, he is the prime suspect. Now, Rusty - sixty years old and a chief judge - wakes to a new nightmare. Molto's name was dragged through the mud and while Rusty regained his career, he lost much more. Rusty was cleared, but the seismic trial left both men reeling. Twenty years ago, Tommy Molto charged his colleague Rusty Sabich with the murder of a former lover, a shocking turn of events that transformed Prosecutor Rusty from the accuser into the accused. It was against the odds, against the evidence and the course of pure reason, but he asked himself anyway. Tommy dwelled for a minute on an idea that had not visited him in months.
