Spencer Dunn

When beloved mayor turned state senator Carlton Osborn is found dead on his boat, the prime suspect is the only other person on board: his pregnant teenage girlfriend, Amber Vega. Struggling to restore his self-confidence after a string of personal and professional losses, Spencer Dunn isn’t eager to defend a young woman who is almost certainly guilty yet refuses to follow his legal advice. But once Spencer starts digging, he realizes this case isn’t as simple as the police are making it out to be.

When local teenager Jason Demers is accused of assaulting his girlfriend and pushing her off a balcony, all evidence points to his guilt.

Delving deeper into this tragic mystery, he uncovers a tangled web of lies that goes far beyond a simple assault.
