Juries are the rock of the Criminal Justice System and provide the individual an opportunity not only to support and benefit from that system, but to participate in it as well. It was never intended, however, that the jury become its victim. In 1982, following six weeks of trial, a jury of seven men and five women convicted and sentenced to death, Alphonse Fabrizi, Pittsburgh's mob Godfather. Sixteen years later, those jurors are being systematically and brutally murdered. This tense fictional story follows Jake Steele, a private investigator, and Mel Tripp, a Pittsburgh Homicide Detective, through a complicated and dangerous investigation that changes the lives of both men forever.
