They enlist the reluctant help of Taran, Harper's stepson, to try Sebastian again and - when he is found guilty - to impose their own sentence. Their plans go awry when, with the aid of his daughter, Lilith, Sebastian is freed. But he doesn't leave. Sebastian and Lilith have other plans for the family who find themselves on trial, and have to endure a night of never ending surprises.
