No one knows better than Will Way that it’s not so easy to get out of Brooklyn. Seeking escape, Will finds possible upward mobility in a relationship with Regine Pomeroy, the daughter of Brooklyn Supreme Court Judge Henry K. Pomeroy.

But when it turns out the perpetrator might not have been armed, Lee’s case becomes a publicity firestorm.
