Résumé du livre
The conclusion to the series featuring gay Mexican-American criminal defense lawyer Henry Rios. Recuperating from a heart attack (a very dramatic first scene), Rios learns with astonishment that his estranged sister had an illegitimate daughter when she was young, and that the girl is grown now, with a son of her own, and an abusive husband. When the man is shot dead, and the bruised wife confesses, Rios immediately assumes it to be a battered wife's self-defense, but gradually small discrepancies emerge, and before long Rios finds himself on a the path to a much darker, more complex truth...a truth that will lead to some life-altering events of his own.
