description: When faced with the choice of saving your own life or the life of the person you love the most, how do you choose? Sara Tote, a Manhattan assistant D.A. is very much in love with her defense attorney husband, Jared, but is on the verge of losing her job. So her colleagues coerce her into taking a case marked for the star prosecutor in hopes of securing her future at the D.A's office. But the case is far more complicated--and deadly--than it first appears. Sara receives a threat: Win the case, or Jared will be killed. And it gets worse. Jared is strong-armed into defending the prime suspect, and he too is instructed to win at all costs or risk Sara's death. In court and at home, husband and wife go head-to-head while harboring the terrible secret of their motives. In a battle of rollercoaster emotions and painful betrayals, Jared and Sara must face the unthinkable truth: No matter who wins, the other dies.
