Love.  

Murder.  

In a courtroom charged with raw emotion, Jael Olive Villanueva faces the unthinkable: prosecuting her over, Raven Pier Samaniego, for the brutal rape and murder of her own sister.  The man who once whispered promises of forever now sits in the defendant's chair, his face a mask of icy denial.  But as the trial unfolds, a web of chilling evidence emerges, casting a dark shadow over Raven's once-untarnished reputation.  Security footage, DNA traces, and conflicting testimonies all point towards a chilling truth - a truth that threatens to shatter Jael's world.  Driven by a burning desire for justice, Jael relentlessly pursues the truth, determined to expose the secrets buried beneath Raven's carefully crafted facade.  

Will she unearth the truth before it's too late?  

Or will the darkness that consumed her sister claim another innocent soul?
