ONE NIGHT IN AMBOISE (MIKE ZORICH) (VOLUME 3)

Judge Jim Hansen has a secret, one he has been hiding for almost 30 years. While he was a student at an overseas campus program in Amboise, France, he was accused of rape and murder. After returning home, it seems as if everyone asks about his past. Meanwhile, his accuser, Corinne Larson, doubts her own actions and seeks professional help. Then it all comes undone for both of them. Now, Judge Hansen is on trial for murder and he must confront the allegations from his past. He asks noted trial lawyer, Mike Zorich, to defend him at a sensational jury trial.
