Even with all that, Yamiah has to have him, regardless of the fact that it could put both her life and his in danger. Having a child with Black, who is ruthless and unforgiving, complicates things. In his eyes, Yamiah is his possession. Black isn't the type of man who is willing to share, and because of who he is, he doesn't have to. His name alone carries weight, and his money gives him a free pass with the cops. Bottom line, Black does what he wants, including control Yami's life. Fresh out of lock up from having trusted the wrong people, Miego realizes that he needs a change. Even though he claims he's done, the streets are all he knows, so he steps right back into the role he left.

But two of his cases challenge his attitudes and test his skills. Convinced that a young Hispanic man accused of armed robbery is actually innocent he works to have the case dismissed before the young man’s life is ruined. Police procedure, a courtroom battle, a savvy expert and an incompetent ADA all play roles in the outcome of the case. A chance introduction brings a Chinese family that’s been dragged into cocaine smuggling and a diamond robbery by a notorious Triad to the lawyer. With the lives of an innocent woman and child hanging in the balance, he works closely with the NYPD and the FBI to free the family from the Triad’s grip.
