Chapter 53

• Asael's POV
• With Allen's confession and the mountain of evidence against her, prosecutors formally reopen Rhea's case with devastating new charges: first-degree murder with premeditation, and conspiracy with Allen Morrison to frame an innocent person.
• The courtroom is packed when they bring Rhea in for her hearing. Media fills every available seat. Cameras aren't allowed inside, but I can hear the chaos of reporters outside, their voices carrying through the heavy doors.
