Peter Rena is a "fixer." With his partner, Randi Brooks, he is hired by the powerful elite to make problems disappear. They get their biggest job yet when the White House hires them to vet the president's nominee for the Supreme Court. Judge Roland Madison is a legal giant, but he's a political maverick, with views that might make the already tricky confirmation process even more difficult. But soon a string of seemingly random killings overlaps with Rena's investigation, with Judge Madison a possible target.
