ATTORNEY DIANA CROSS, 39, takes on a case everyone told her to refuse: defending a 22-year-old Black man accused of murdering a police officer in Memphis — on bodycam footage that the prosecution claims is unambiguous. Diana knows the footage was edited. She has 14 days before the trial begins to prove it, navigate a city on the edge of riots, survive two attempts on her life, and keep her client — who is concealing a truth that could save or destroy him — honest with her. THE FIRST FOURTEEN is a pressure-cooker legal thriller told in real time across 14 days.
