IT'S 1999: WELCOME TO Y2K HYSTERIA, AND A HISTORY-MAKING LEGAL CASE. When a high-profile church leader gets arrested, his lawyer looks for help from an old friend : Connor J. Devlin, who's reluctant to dip back into the criminal defense world. Especially in a case making headlines around the world-for all the wrong reasons. Almost three decades into his career, with his own caseload already bursting at the seams, Devlin doesn't want or need the spotlight, or the notoriety. Simultaneously, the onetime barely prepared law-school student has become the erstwhile teacher::Shelby Cannon, a thirtysomething Ivy League rising star, rents an office at Devlin & Associates to learn firsthand from the master how to take on-and beat-the goliaths: big government, big business, and big medicine. As Devlin inexorably gets reeled back into the defense-lawyer game , unlikely clients emerge from his past-including one with disturbing news of a wrongful death. Everything hangs in the balance: As the entire world barrels toward Y2K and a potentially explosive conclusion to the century, so too does Devlin's career.
