Opis

When a man is killed in a downtown alley, the one holding the knife is arrested for murder. He is David, a homeless man with no credentials; a man who claims he is the new Messiah. While David is incarcerated, awaiting trial, immigrant American cop, Luke Powers, works to gather evidence to convict David of first degree murder. Then he meets David's lovely, feisty lawyer, Maggie de Silver. While Maggie fights the system to let David go free, she becomes curious about the man who won't change his testimony to satisfy the courts. 'Only the Father can judge me, ' he said as the story breaks worldwide. With the internet on meltdown, Christians and non-believers alike ridicule David for claiming the most sacred of roles, condemning him to a lifetime behind bars. When Luke discovers another suspect involved in the murder of Claude Shiver, an abrupt turn in the investigation puts businessman, Mike Pitchero, into the limelight. As Luke delves deeper into the life of the man who put the I into I-pad, another story unfolds, revealing corruption on a massive scale. Whilst David won't be judged or questioned, around him a story of deceit and betrayal gathers like a storm building momentum; a story of fraud and murderous intent, against a backdrop of organised crime. 'The Judgement' is a story that says, What if?
