Wrongfully imprisoned former farmer Constance Mayer, 50, earns law degree. As clerk to demanding Marseille judge Filiponi, her nontraditional methods challenge colleagues and her mentor's perspective.

After being wrongfully imprisoned due to a judicial error, Constance Mayer decides to try a new career path. At age 50, the former farmer earns a law degree and moves to Marseille to clerk for highly-demanding Judge Frédéric Filiponi. Constance is a bubbly, energetic woman who doesn't hold back, bringing a fresh perspective to the cases the duo takes on. She draws her the ire of her colleagues at the courthouse, who think she has a chip on her shoulder. But Constance's empathetic nature and nontraditional approach turn the clerkship into a mutual learning experience, as her novel investigation methods and humane approach force Filiponi to step outside his comfort zone.—Happy_Evil_Dude
