As Jane is preparing to defend a high-profile client accused of a
triple homicide, she's also hired to revive a cold case - a cluster of
unsolved murders.
Then another bombshell lands. A devastating medical diagnosis.
Terminal. She's got a year to live.
But for now, she has a trial to win. Unless one of her many enemies
kills her first.

The dynamics are simple in the Wolf family. They eat you if you let
them.
Joe Wolf has raised his children to have the same cut-throat mentality
that built his own California business empire: kill or be killed.
When Joe's body is discovered adrift in the San Francisco Bay, his
daughter Jenny finds herself head of the Wolf empire.
With her brothers trying to seize her newfound power and assets from
under her, Jenny discovers that each of them has the means and motive
to kill.
Which of them is capable of murder?
When an unknown man is found murdered in Paradise, Jesse Stone will
have his hands full finding out who he was - and what he was
seeking. When a body is discovered at the lake in Paradise, Police
Chief Jesse Stone is surprised to find he recognizes the murder
victim - the man had been at the same AA meeting as Jesse the
evening before. But otherwise, Jesse has no clue as to the man's
identity. He isn't a local, nor does he have ID on him, nor does
any neighboring state have a reported missing person matching the
man's description. Their single lead is from a taxi company that
recalls dropping off the mysterious stranger outside the gate at
the mansion of one of the wealthiest families in town... Meanwhile,
after Jesse survives a hail of gunfire on his home, he wonders if
it could be related to the mysterious murder. When both Molly Crane
and Suitcase Simpson also become targets, it's clear someone has an
axe to grind against the entire Paradise Police Department.
