A young partner in a white-shoe Biloxi law firm fakes his own death in a burning car, leaving behind a wife, newborn daughter, and a secret. What he’s actually done is fake his death to create a template for a new life by stealing $90 million from a client of his crooked firm. He finds happiness and love in South America. When the client finds the money missing from his offshore accounts, he becomes determined to hunt down the lawyer he doesn’t believe is dead, leading the attorney to turn himself in and face up to the life he left behind.
