Perhaps she can prove without a doubt that Richard Sirling is guilty and prevent her mother from wasting any more time or money on him. While solving the case, Susan hides a deep, personal secret that could affect the lives of those closest to her. Will she be able to keep the secret while determining whether or not Murder is Legal?
