Everything changes when he is charged with the same murder and helping her could hurt him. At every turn, powerful people and the law stand in his way, but he's willing to break them all - and himself - to save all he holds dear - even if that means committing murder. Deep connections to his past resurface which his wife knows will either save his life or end it. In the end, Dax discovers the truth isn't always certain and uncovering it can have disastrous consequences.
