The Resource Damage

Summary: The Curtlees are the most powerful family in San Francisco, unscrupulous billionaires who have lined every important pocket in the Bay Area in pursuit of their own ascent. So when the family's heir, Ro Curtlee, was convicted of rape and murder a decade ago, the fallout for those who helped to bring him to justice was swift and uncompromising. The jury foreman was fired from his job and blacklisted in his industry. The lead prosecutor was pushed off the fast track, her dreams of becoming DA dashed. And head homicide detective Abe Glitsky was reassigned to the police department's payroll office. Eventually, all three were able to rebuild their fragile, damaged lives. And then Ro's lawyers won him a retrial, and he was released from jail. Within 24 hours, fires are breaking out at the homes of those involved, and Abe finds himself struggling to stop the violence when the media is against him and forced to decide how much he is willing to sacrifice to see justice done
