Summary:

Winston Patrick thought he had left the law behind him. Successful
but dissatisfied with his career defending the downtrodden of
Vancouver's criminal world, Winston trades in the courtroom for the
classroom, at a rough, East Vancouver high school. Soon Winston's
past life meets his present, when Carl, a fellow teacher, seeks
Winston's legal help after Carl's student threatens to expose a lurid
teacher-student love affair. Reluctantly, Winston has agreed to
provide legal defense of Carl's alleged sexual impropriety when the
case takes an even uglier turn: the student is murdered, making her
alleged lover the prime suspect. And this is no ordinary student.
With family connections reaching as high as the Prime Minister's
office, Winston and best friend, Detective Andrea Pearson, find
themselves immersed in a murder investigation that could cause an
international incident, if it doesn't cost Winston his own life
first.
