The prosecutor- Julia Valenciano. Young, ambitious and facing a case that could launch her career. The defendant - David Marquette. A successful Miami surgeon and devoted family man. The victims - Marquette's own wife and three small children. The plea- Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity. But the state suspects Marquette's insanity defence is being fabricated to disguise murders that were cold-blooded and calculated. Worse, Julia believes Marquette could be responsible for a string of unsolved, brutal homicides. The distraught survivor could just be one of the most prolific and elusive serial killers in Florida's history. The trial will take Julia on a painful personal journey back to a past she has struggled for fifteen years to forget. And it will bring her face to face with a future that is so frightening, she's not sure if she even wants to see it.

Excerpt from A Plea for the Insane in the Prisons and Poor-Houses of Pennsylvania Insanity, in its relation to legislation and jurisprudence, as well as to mental, moral and medical science, to its characteristics and the mode of determining its presence, as well as the method of treatment for its cure, to the best means of protecting society against its violent or mischievous assaults, as well as to its claims upon our human regard and sympathy; - is a subject of great difficulty, but, at the same time, of commensurate interest and importance. It is not easy to give a clear Definition Of Insanity, and when we attempt it, the danger is that we run into one extreme or another, and either allow none to be insane but the raving maniac, or make all insane who commit anything foolish or wrong. But we need not attempt a definition here. Whenever the condition of the raving maniac is so far approximated, and the reason so far disordered or dethroned, that the apprehension of the distinction between right and wrong is lost, either wholly and in all relations, or partially and in relation to some particular subjects, then insanity so far exists as to demand to be specifically recognized in the administration of justice, in the means to be provided for the protection of society, and in determining the treatment due to those who are its subjects. The diagnosis of such cases we may leave to experts, and the determination of the facts to the proper officials, judges or juries.
