The effects of religion on American society are deadly in this criminal thriller, featuring a divisive murder case set in one of the world's most iconic cities. When a third-party presidential candidate is assassinated on live television, the nation goes wild. But the murderer, a New York City policeman named Satya Grady, insists the real foul play lies at the hands of the deceased victim. Grady begs Washington, DC-based criminal defense attorney Emanuel Adams to fight for his life. Convinced at first that his client is insane, Adams navigates his own struggle with personal morals and discovers Grady might be the sanest of them all. Can the transformed attorney convince the court that Grady was serving vigilante justice in the name of God? Or is the case closed before the verdict is even decided? The potency of spiritual messages in the modern world is explored in this political mystery where more than one idea-and life-is on the line.
