A Foolish Plucking Dee Wilbur

Yeah, Gary is a womanizer and a boozer, but is he a murderer, too? The police sure think so. True, they don't have a body, but they do have the big fight between Gary and Alice, his wife, at the country club. And they do have Alice's blood on the wall behind the bed. And in the shower drain. And in the back of Alice's Escalade. Unfortunately for Gary, the jury sides with the police and gives him life without parole. Melissa, Gary's mistress, brings him another surprise; she is pregnant. She and their daughter move to Richmond, hoping to leave the Scarlet A behind them in Dayton, trading one small Texas town for another. Melissa enlists Jon Miller as attorney to get Gary a new hearing. Sandy had married Jon without meeting his family. She doesn't realize that while Jon solves Gary's problem, she and Jon will struggle with a family crisis involving their sister-in-law.
