The Sin of Forgiveness

A courtroom drama and techo-thriller about the rape trial of neo-conservative TV personality and former black power activist, Elijah Claymore. Attractive computer statistician and jury selection expert Andromeda (Andi) Phoenix is pressured into sitting at the defence table largely for cosmetic effect. This strains her relationship with her black lesbian lover Eugenia (Gene) Vance, who works at a rape crisis centre. But when Andi discovers evidence that the jury-selection software has been tampered with to exclude blacks, she ends up locked in a cat-and-mouse struggle with a racist hacker. And while Andi does battle in cyberspace against an adversary who seems to anticipate her every move, the prosecution case veers dramatically between weak and strong, in a complex series of twists, forcing Claymore into an intense personal struggle to lay the demons of the past to rest.
