Jagged Edge

Courtroom thriller about a wealthy publishing magnate accused of brutally murdering his wife. His lawyer finds her ethics compromised when she falls in love with him.

It was the kind of murder that sells newspapers. A beautiful and wealthy heiress is found savagely slain. The murder weapon - a large hunting knife with a serrated, jagged edge. However, for the victim's husband, Jack Forrester, the ordeal is not over. Accused of the brutal killing he must face a harrowingly public trial in which the odds are against him, especially since his own lawyer, Teddy Barnes, is sceptical of his innocence. However, as their relationship develops from the courtroom to the bedroom, Jack and Teddy begin to find out things about each other that neither wanted to know.
