Judge Oliver Garland has just died in suspicious circumstances. Conservative and controversial, he had many enemies. Many years ago, he'd earned a judge's highest prize: a Supreme Court nomination. But in a scene of bitter humiliation in front of a televised audience, he had to withdraw his nomination. It was a national scandal, and a private agony.
Now, years later, the judge's death raises even more questions than his life did and seems to be leading to a second terrible scandal. Could he have been murdered?
He has left a strange message for his son Talcott, a professor at an elite Ivy League law school, entrusting him with 'the arrangements' - a mysterious puzzle that only Tal can unlock. When another man is found dead, and then another, Talcott must risk life, marriage and reputation, following the clues his father left him.
