    Summary

    Aristotle wrote, ‘The law is reason, free from passion’

    When Manhattan based lawyer Arthur Pendragon left England five years ago, he had every intention of never returning; yet his father’s death changed everything. So with a stipulation hanging over his inheritance, Arthur finds himself sharing an office with the most unlikeliest of people, his barristers clerk Merlin. Unfortunately just when Arthur and Merlin’s work relationship begins to turn into something more, Arthur’s new client, teenage drug dealer Mordred, causes a rift to form between them after Merlin discovers the teenager’s connection to his best friend Will’s murder.

    However just when Merlin starts to think his life couldn’t become anymore complicated, Will’s widow (and his current roommate) Freya takes off, leaving Merlin to care for her newborn son; but even Arthur isn’t one to let their fight stop him from being a friend to Merlin in his time of need.
