Alison is a woman who has achieved success. Her legal career is gaining momentum. At home, a caring husband and an adorable daughter await her. Colleagues treat her as an equal and she is finally ready to take on her first murder case as a defender—a big step towards rising in the legal hierarchy.

Her client in the current case hides a sinister secret and its revelation could be fatal. Just when things couldn't get more complicated and ominous, Alison starts receiving cynical and threatening anonymous messages—someone who knows too much about her personal life is on her trail... and means her no good.
