Synopsis

CLAY BENNETT IS A KILLER. BUT IS HE GUILTY OF MURDER?

"NOT SINCE GRISHAM’S A TIME TO KILL has the line between Justice and the Law been more blurred."

A High School Sweetheart Brutally Beaten.

An All-American Football Hero on Trial for Murder.

A Verdict That Could Drive a Stake Through the Heart of America's Favorite Game!

"A Must Read for every parent with a child enrolled in youth, Pop Warner, or high school football."

"Taut, compelling, impeccably researched..."

For All-American high school football phenom Clay Bennett, the stakes couldn’t be higher: Freedom or a lifetime tossing touchdown passes to fellow inmates in a maximum-security prison yard.

For notorious Austin, Texas, defense attorney Carter Holman, a reputation earned successfully defending the indefensible: A college football player on trial for beating his transgender girlfriend to death and a mother of three who’d doused her children with gasoline before setting them aflame in a bathtub.

For Assistant District Attorney Katie DuClaire, a certain path to the District Attorney’s office or a career in private practice defending DUIs.

For the National Football League, a sport that owns three days of the week and generates tens of billions in revenue, a precedent-setting verdict that could drive a stake through the heart of America’s favorite Game.

Clay Bennett is an All-American high school quarterback, top college prospect, and heir to a financial fortune and political dynasty. Predicted by many to be the next Tom Brady and expected to one day run for high office, Clay is every parent’s dream child, every teacher’s ideal student, every high school football coach’s ticket to the NCAA. Yet on the night of August twenty-seven, Clay Bennett kills his high school sweetheart Amie Heywood by brutally beating her to death with his bare hands; the physical and forensic evidence proves it beyond any reasonable doubt. To defend his young client, notorious defense attorney Carter Holman must ask Why? Because the answer to the question is the only thing standing between Clay Bennett and a lifetime behind bars.
