<DIV><DIV><b>Weary of his work, Lomax reluctantly takes a case defending a man he believes is guilty of murder</b></div><DIV><BR>When Samuel Butler, a cruelly arrogant titan of industry, learns his wife is cheating again, he expresses his feelings with a punch to her face. She is bruised when he leaves the house, but still alive. After a few hours&rsquo; drinking, he comes home to apologize, flowers in hand, and finds his wife bludgeoned to death on the floor. Or at least that&rsquo;s what he tells the police.</div><DIV><BR>The cops don&rsquo;t believe him, and neither do the people of Denver, who write Butler off as a murderer even before his trial starts. In desperation, Butler&rsquo;s lawyer hires private detective Jacob Lomax to prove his client&rsquo;s alibi. Fresh off a Mexican vacation and thinking of quitting the business, Jake hates himself for defending a man who is so obviously guilty. But as he digs into the victim&rsquo;s past, he reconsiders. There are plenty of men who wanted this woman dead.</div><DIV></div></div>
