Opis

Mitchell Becker's wild and destructive lifestyle had cost him a marriage, a family, and a home. He had two choices, pull himself out of the ashes of his miserable existence - or die. Entering the safety of Carol Freeman and George Donovan's facility, Becker begins to put his life back together. One year later, still shaky and vulnerable, he makes two important trips, the first to his beloved and reluctant ex-wife, Jodi, and the second to his mother's gravesite. While begging for forgiveness for the second time that day, he notices a strange woman lurking the grounds. She appears lost and so out of place in the twenty-first century. Becker writes her off as just another freak encounter and returns home. Had Becker remained with Jodi on that day, he may have been able to prevent her murder. Instead, he becomes the prime suspect. A corrupt district attorney becomes Becker's worst nightmare, and a guilty verdict is all but a sure thing, as a creative DA spins a web of deceit for the jury. Becker's freak encounter becomes his only alibi, but there's a serious problem with her testimony. She is considered to be psychotic and delusional, destroying any hope of being a credible witness. Although she is unable to help in the conventional sense, and all seems lost for Becker, she offers him a solution no one ever thought possible.
