Set against the turbulent 1960s, this novel follows Meredith McKenzie, a Manhattan lawyer's daughter shaped by her childhood witnessing her father's prosecution of war criminals at Nuremberg. Destined for privilege and the traditional path of her prominent legal family, Meredith instead discovers her own calling for justice. Steel's gripping story traces how this young woman's early exposure to the clash between right and wrong ignites her passion for a different kind of fight.
