Frankie Laursen's past is dark with drugs, dangerous bikers, and an association with a dishonorably discharged Vietnam infantryman of the My Lai massacre. Even after Frankie has completed law school and changed his name to Frank B. Holst, the young courtroom virtuoso appears to be cold, cunning, and contradictory. However, one cannot help but wonder whether his behavioral patterns portend a sociopath or a man driven by benevolent forces less superficially seen. The brilliant but troubled only son of multimillionaire East Memphis land developer "Big Frank" Laursen, Frankie loses his college girlfriend, Anna Romers, to a drug overdose. Within weeks, the lead criminal investigator on the case, Preston Hargrove, persuades the District Attorney's office to issue an arrest warrant for nineteenyear- old Frankie. Young Laursen is charged with pre-meditated murder in the death of Anna, the only daughter of a wealthy and a socially prominent Jackson, Mississippi petroleum entrepreneur, Karl Romers, who finances and masterminds a most malevolent method of avenging his daughter's death. The results of the trial, and Romers' obsession with revenge, trigger a vengeful vendetta, which becomes ever expanding in its proportions, people, and places. Each ensuing event exposes another strand making up the tangled and complex web of betrayal, broken hearts, multiple homicides, frame-ups, and assassination assignments, which all lead to the centerpiece of the web's core of revenge. Common sense criminal investigations, forensic dentistry, the science of fingerprinting, bullet ballistics, and cold-blooded violence climax into a captivating tale of intrigue, which explores the inner workings of the human heart and the consequences for those embittered souls who seek "an eye for an eye"-the conspirators of revenge.
