The May trial of Chase Bromley grabbed the attention of not only Bostonians, but the entire country as well. While the Hernandez trial was garnering attention, and certainly the Marathon Bombing case in federal court a few doors down, the rape, torture, and murder of Sloane Nichols was in the national spotlight. The accused wasn't a professional athlete or on a terrorist watch list. Chase was, however, the son of the infamous billionaire and property developer Kenneth Bromley, which made him Boston Royalty. Nichols, the former girlfriend of the accused, had been murdered in her own apartment the previous fall.
There was no sign of forced entry, meaning Nichols knew her killer. The forensic evidence was stacked against Bromley, who had been seen in the victim's apartment building despite a restraining order. Given the heinous nature of the crimes, the city of Boston wanted to see that justice was executed. The rest of America watched and waited for the inevitable. The third marquee trial in New England that May was similar to the others in that the outcome was a forgone conclusion. The only son of Kenneth Bromley would spend the rest of his life in prison.
Or would he?
Former detective and current private investigator, Warren Dennihan, finds himself more than simply investigating the Bromley case, but becomes inexorably involved in the trial. Deni will seek out the truth, see that justice prevails for his city. For the nation. For the women in his life. For himself.
