Prima Facie

On trial for his life, Michael finds himself falling for his lead counsel, Tom Mesereau. Charming, good-natured, and kind, Mez is everything Michael's been looking for in a partner. But calling him Tom is a step too far, because Michael can't help but notice the parallels between Mez and Tom Sneddon, the district attorney hell-bent on destroying Michael's life. But Sneddon isn't just an antagonist: he's a bitter ex-lover from whom Michael has spent over a decade trying to escape. Manipulation, desire, deceit, broken bones, and broken hearts-Michael endured it all for eleven years until the arrest. As his trial unfolds, Michael must confront and exorcise his own demons if he means to survive.
