Synopsis:
It's always surprising when a crime is committed in a quiet, suburban community, but believe it or not, it happens every single day across the country.
This series follows these disturbing cases from start to finish.
Annabeth Chase is a young, aggressive prosecutor with a near perfect conviction record who tries the cases that take place in her own backyard. Returning to work four months after her husband was killed by a drunk driver, Annabeth is ready to take on the most difficult cases, fueled by her passion to protect her community and infant daughter.
Maureen Scofield, a no-nonsense lawyer who's not afraid to push her team as hard as needed to get a conviction.
Assistant District Attorney James Conlon, a handsome, self-assured and ambitious, is just in from New York City and ready to make his mark. There is no denying the attraction between Annabeth and James, but with her husband recently deceased, romance will most likely be far down the road. Tough, straight-forward investigator Ed Williams and Ray Blackwell, Conlon's edgy, smart guy from New York, nicely round out this ambitious legal team.
