A religious man who believes that the courtroom, when ran correctly, should function like “God’s filter,” trapping all the devils of the world. As the court’s attorney, the responsibility falls on him to sift out those devils. However, he suffers a crisis of faith, after discovering he’d sent an innocent man to his death—a man in whose guilt he was absolutely certain, nonetheless. So he decides to pen a letter inviting the devil to come to town. He’d like to meet the man himself. Size him up to try and determine if he’d ever seen him before in the courtroom, in the eyes of all those men and women he’s sent away. If so, then maybe he did some good after all. But, how many good deeds does it take to balance the scales with that one horrible mistake?
