Summary
"Coming to a new country is difficult for everyone, but for German immigrant Mabel Krause, coming to America is about to get a whole lot harder... With her brother facing trial for a murder he didn't commit, Mabel needs a… lawyer who can help prove her brother's innocence. The only trouble is, she can't afford one. Good things there's a law student in town who's making a name for himself by helping the unfortunate. Now if she can just convince him to help her brother... Hiram Cummings needs money to return to law school, and the fastest way to earn it is by working as a legal clerk for the powerful and rich Rhett Vandergriff. When a desperate immigrant comes to him for help, he knows he should refuse her. He can't afford to take on charity cases when he needs money himself. Yet Hiram was raised knowing the importance of doing right and living his faith. His commitment to justice and integrity means he can't quite bring himself to turn away from Mabel, and Hiram soon finds himself on a mission to prove a man's innocence. But all is not as it appears, and Hiram soon learns that not only is his job at risk, but he's also in danger of losing his heart--if he and Mabel don't lose their lives first." -- OCLC
