Everything Claire Kubik thought she knew about her life is a lie. When her husband, supposedly Tom Kubik, is arrested, she discovers he is actually Ron Chapman—a former Marine accused of committing a brutal massacre in Latin America. Determined to uncover the truth and protect him, Claire must navigate the ruthless and complex world of military justice with the help of the unconventional attorney Charlie Grimes. Meanwhile, her sister finds unexpected romance with a rookie military lawyer. With key witnesses dying under suspicious circumstances and secrets unraveling at every turn, High Crimes is a tense thriller of deceit, betrayal, and the shocking lengths people will go to hide the truth.
