History…Mystery…Suspense
At the dawn of a new century, San Francisco is a phoenix, rising from the ashes of a massive earthquake and fire, brimming with more than its share of energy, opportunity and legal machinations. English trial attorney Jonathan Perris emigrates to “The Golden City” and opens a small law practice, hoping to forge a productive life far from London’s intrigue. With the help of his quirky American colleagues Cordelia Hammersmith, Oliver Bean and Dove Rebane, “Barrister Perris” takes on cases other lawyers won’t touch. He’s more than up for the challenge, but a major obstacle continues to haunt him: the unsettling past he’s trying to forget.
