Move over, John Grisham! Biloxi's best criminal defense attorney has never lost a case. Then his wife is murdered, and he becomes the nation's #1 suspect. Stafford Lee Penney is a small-town lawyer with a big-time reputation for winning every case he tries. In his sharp suits and polished Oxford shoes, Penney is Biloxi, Mississippi's #1 Lawyer and top local celebrity. Just as Penney notches his latest courtroom victory, his wife is scandalously killed.

It's said that a lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client. But when Penney's accused of murder, the #1 Lawyer will find a way to triumph.
