In suburban Georgetown a killer's Reeboks whisper on the front floor of a posh home...In a seedy D.C. porno house a patron is swiftly garroted to death...The next day America learns  that two of its Supreme Court justices have been assassinated.

And in New Orleans, a young law student prepares a legal brief...To Darby Shaw it was  no more than a legal shot in the dark, a brilliant  guess. To the Washington establishment it was  political dynamite.

Suddenly Darby is witness to a murder -- a murder intended for her. Going  underground, she finds there is only one person she can  trust -- an ambitious reporter after a newsbreak  hotter than Watergate -- to help her piece together the deadly puzzle. Somewhere between the bayous of  Louisiana and the White House's inner sanctums, a violent cover-up is being engineered.

For somone has read Darby's brief. Someone who will stop at nothing to destroy the evidence of an unthinkable crime.
