Messengers and Murderers

When the Kirkland family is almost fully killed and Francis is accused of the murder, a small group of lawyers band together to prove his innocence; but it seems the murderer has past motives against all of them, and is now out to kill anyone standing in their way. Who killed Arthur? Will it really be Francis in the end? Who will the murderer strike next? What happened in the past to make the murderer go ballistic? Let's just say, it started with a deal...

This is my version, I technically own half of this story/plot. I do not own the characters, they are owned by Himaruya.
