Defense lawyer Antonio Connor's life changes when he takes a case that starts off as an ordinary murder in the first-degree and then turns into something more dreadful. Taunted by his enemies and his inner demons alike, Antonio faces a harrowing test of his limits and skills when he discovers that the roots of the murder lead to a menacingly tangled web left undiscovered for long. Crime, mystery and passion come together in a sinister game of life and death as the clock ticks faster with each passing day and every other blow falls quicker than the first.....
And if at all you can follow our protagonist to the end of this journey, there's only one question that needs answering:
CAN YOU FACE THE TRUTH?
Hey guys this is my first official novel and also the first story I'm uploading on Wattpad. Kindly forgive technical issues (if any), I'm still trying to get used to the platform. I've tried my level best to avoid grammatical mistakes and errors, so please forgive me for any that you might come across. I know the chapters are a bit long (some are too long), but believe me they will be worth reading, I couldn't split them up since each chapter has a significance as a whole. That being said, enjoy the story... HAVE FUN!!!

Mean Looking Sweetheart
My breath hitched, the moment he held my wrist to stop me, his grip so light as if he was holding something made of feathers. He pleaded, looking down at his feet, "Then... take me, Ava, to where sinners go. But please take me yourself. So, I can be with you, just for a second more." His voice turned so soft at the end, just a whisper, for a moment, I thought I had only imagined him saying that. That was probably the most I've ever heard him say. Please don't make me doubt my decisions. It's best to stay away from you. I'm not strong enough to face the loss again when it comes. ______________________________ People look at their feet when he is standing in front of them.
