Tapped to take over Natalie's high-profile case, Finn is haunted by her death and becomes embroiled in the mystery of her murder. Both Boston's legal community and shady associates from Finn's youth seem to be involved, and Finn finds himself caught in the middle, fighting for his own life and even becoming the chief suspect in Natalie's murder.
