But while Tony is coasting through life on attitude and charm, his older brother Frank is cleaning up the streets as a crime-busting DA. Frank and Tony both know that Tony is no killer. Trouble is, Tony isn't willing to give up his alibi. With life in prison a distinct possibility, Tony still refuses to talk. When Frank discovers his brother's true whereabouts on the night of the murder, he realizes that telling the truth would set his brother free, but destroy his own chances for winning the governorship. Now Frank must make the toughest decision of his life: does he give up the truth and face the consequences, or sacrifice his own flesh and blood to become the youngest governor ever elected into office? ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
