    Celebrities get away with murder. 
     
     
     
    Assistant District Attorney Jessie Black doesn't believe that. She believes the law applies to everyone, and that justice and truth prevail. 
     
     
     
    But according to veteran prosecutor Ned Ransom, it's exactly what happened six years ago, when hip-hop superstar Jurdel Frazier threw his wife off a fifteenth floor hotel balcony and was found not guilty by a starstruck jury. 
     
     
     
    Now history repeats itself. Police find the cold, dead body of Frazier's new girlfriend, and Jessie finds herself next to Ransom at the prosecution table. 
     
     
     
    But is this a second chance for justice, or something more sinister—and deadly? The more Jessie uncovers, the more she worries that this case is not what it appears. 
     
     
     
    And the person she begins to trust the least is the prosecutor sitting next to her.

    Who killed the rabbi's brother? And why? 
    Semi-reformed hacker Steve Levitan explores a part of his background -- growing up Jewish in the Trenton suburbs.  
    A young man suffering from mental illness disrupts the blessing of the animals at the synagogue he attends, a congregation where he grew up and celebrated his bar mitzvah. 
    This starts Steve and his clue-sniffing golden retriever Rochester on their newest investigation, one that will take Steve back into the past of his family, his congregation, and the Jewish population of the city where he was born. As Steve teaches a class in Jewish American literature, he and Rochester nose out suspects and dig up clues to present-day crimes-and ones in the past which still influence the living. From the rabbi's Talmud study group to a homeless shelter in Trenton, our two intrepid sleuths are on the trail of someone with deep secrets, and the will to kill to protect them.
