Catherine O'Roarke is a journalist who takes her work seriously. She has reported on many court cases, but there is one that really touches her heart and that brings up a very painful memory from her past. It is the case of Quinn Newberg's sister who is being tried for the murder of her abusive husband.
When Catherine gets into trouble herself, largely due to visions she has that make her look guilty, she asks Quinn, who represented his sister with an insanity plea, to help her, and is even willing to go the same route, as she has started to doubt her own sanity.
Willing to go to jail to protect her source, she finds being incarcerated for murder an even worse experience. Judged in the press, vilified as a murderer, things just become worse for her. The one constant she holds onto is Quinn. Quinn who, with his devotion to his sister and niece, and his tireless attempts to help Catherine, shows her what the Bible means by laying down one's life for another.
Are these visions a curse or a blessing? Where do they come from? Is she really insane?
The plot is excellent and one is kept guessing as to the outcome right to the very end. I can highly recommend this novel.
