There's one corpse too many in a Pittsburgh museum's life-size diorama of the Battle of Lexington, 1775. The extra body is that of philanthropist and art connoisseur T. Colfax Bradshaw. But why? None of the $500 million in fine art stolen from Boston's Isabella Gardner Museum in 1995 has ever been recovered. Maybe he knew to much about the biggest art heist in history.
When their daughter Caitlin seeks legal advice, newly minted lawyer Cynthia Jakubec finds herself representing the teen. Jakubec aches to jump from Main Street to Wall Street but is stuck interning for ace Pittsburgh attorney Luis Mendoza while she waits for her future New York employer to recover from the Great Recession. Or for her fiance to finish his post-modern novel....
Protecting Caitlin will take Jakubec from a ghetto church in Pittsburgh to a confessional at St. Patrick's Cathedral to the opulent Manhattan office where she hopes to trade street law for suite law. Along the way she'll meet people who carry guns on the job and she'll pick up a broken nose and a broken heart for her trouble. She didn't fire the first shot at Pittsburgh's Battle of Lexington display, but she'll have to decide whether or not to fire the last....
