Ambivalent Advocate

Kay Schneider knows autism from the inside, so she knows how much autistics differ from one another. Although the idea of an individual autistic murderer does not astonish her, the stereotype of autistic people as violent offends her core sense of justice. Only a motive that strong, combined with her concern for the suspects young autistic daughter, along with love for a lost dog, could persuade her to advocate for a man she believes is guilty. Where her advocacy leads her logical mind is to a conclusion that threatens to conclude her own existence.
