First Line of Defense

Will the President risk it all to save his son?

When college student Ben Porter is murdered in his apartment near the University of Maryland, all evidence points straight to his best friend and roommate, Brian Blaine-the son of Jackson Blaine, the President of the United States. Despite Brian's estranged relationship with his father, Brian has no choice but to await trial in the house that was never a home-1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. These staggering events exacerbate the young man's rocky relationship with his demanding father and might very well end his budding romance with a beautiful pre-med student. To the shock of the entire nation, President Jackson Blaine, a former defense lawyer, does the unthinkable-he decides to represent his son in court.

Will Brian and his father discover the truth about Ben's murder before it's too late?
