Judge Alva Cason, AC, was never really bored in his work. There was plenty of courtroom drama to prevent that. He did, though, have the ability to remain detached and not personally involved in his cases which, in turn, led to a certain amount of drudgery. He never suspected a routine dependency case would lead to his heated romance with a sensuous case worker, rumors of baby buying, improper communications by one of his fellow judges, and finally an attempt at coercion on a case he was handling involving millions of dollars.
The story takes place in the Eight Judicial Circuit of Florida where the author has spent his entire career as a lawyer and judge. The reader will be taken behind the bench into the private world of judges. Lawyers, both honest and sincere and sad and bumbling are viewed from the judge's perspective. The charming and wonderful landscape of northern Florida is presented as the characters attempt to unravel the unusual events they are facing.
