Litigator Cicely Vella rarely loses a case, but her extraordinary record is in jeopardy when she chooses to defend her ex-husband Sam, the only suspect in what appears to be two indefensible murders.Cicely is living the dream life of a young professional. She's bright, beautiful, Black, and successful, but she harbors one weakness-lingering feelings for Sam, the husband who got away.Samuel Vella is a physician with high intellect, striking good looks―and a proclivity for making poor decisions. In the aftermath of his split from Cicely, Sam initiates an affair with Scarlett Lang, a free-spirited married woman, and their liaison lands Sam behind bars.Cicely, meanwhile, feels the triple lures of her emotional attachment to Sam, the opportunity to redeem the Vella name in the courtroom, and her zest for fame in a sensational high-profile trial.Nothing in the world but this court date could make Cicely and Sam sit elbow to elbow, day after day. The odds of a divorced couple remarrying the same person are 6 in 100, a statistic Cicely is both aware of and wary of, as she's drawn back into Sam's life.
