Retribution

Synopsis

When an elite prosecutor faces the most lethal predator she's ever encountered, it all comes down to a choice between justice...and retribution Prosecutor C.J. Townsend is a talented state prosecutor in Miami, well-known within law enforcement and judicial circles for her ability to handle even the most horrific cases - without losing her cool. Her experience in prosecuting violent sex-crimes has resulted in her to rise to second-in-command at the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office where she has a reputation for going strictly 'by-the-book'. For the past year, C.J. has been involved in the investigation of a series of shocking murders that have taken place in Miami. When a speeding motorist is pulled over and police discover the mutilated body of a young woman in the trunk of the car, it appears that the case is finally solved. Despite the maelstrom of publicity, she begins to build her court case, piece by careful piece. But C.J. has personal demons that she's never revealed to the world. Now, when she needs to be at the top of her game, a terrible incident from her past is resurfacing. As she battles the evil incarnate in court, she is also fighting the devil inside - struggling to resolve the conflict between the events of her past and her duty and integrity as a prosecuting attorney. On top of everything else, the lead detective on the case is one who has hinted that he has begun to care for her as much as more than just a colleague. And everything is riding on her ability to put this killer behind bars. . !
