As a third-year crime scene technician for the state of New Jersey, Gina was certain the crime lab had been careful and diligent in their findings. The lab had produced plenty of evidence for the district attorney to create no doubt for the jury. Detective Nick Casey was the final witness for the prosecutor's case. His damaging testimony claiming evidence had been falsified put several careers in jeopardy, including Gina's. He also perjured himself on the witness stand, landing himself in prison. Why?But Gina's search for answers is quickly sidelined by a confidential order reassigning her to the Atlanta, Georgia crime lab.
