   Summary

   Hermione Granger is determined to rise all the way to the top. She wants everything and more. On her path to becoming Minister, her current ambition is clear: to secure the position of the Ministry’s Chief Defence Attorney. Suddenly, she finds that Draco Malfoy holds the key to her success and even her future.

   She needs his case, and Malfoy seems to have his own agenda requiring her brilliance. A partnership forged from need in the halls of the Ministry.

   When Malfoy entrusts her with the case of Freya Eldric, accused of murdering her husband, the situation seems hopeless. Hermione quickly realises that not only her career but also the life of a possibly innocent person is at stake, and suddenly she asks herself what justice truly means.
