When Alexis "Lexi" Gordon suddenly found herself divorced and homeless, she did not fold and give up on life; she fought back. Lexi worked her way through an undergraduate degree and then a law degree and landed her dream job as a prosecutor in the Carroll County District Attorney's Office elite Major Crimes Division. Well on her way to becoming the prosecutor of the division, Lexi was also being groomed by her friend and mentor, Samuel Mahoney, to take over as his position as chief of the illustrious division. Lexi slowly realized, though, she was thwarting someone else's plans to do the same. Stefon Abraham, an attorney in the bad check unit, has longed to be a member of the Major Crimes Division and dreams of eventually taking over as chief one day until Mahoney hires the likes of Lexi Gordon. Stefon, in his self-declared war against Lexi, enlists Lexi's naive assistant, Emma Naylor, as one of his weapons of destruction. Little does Lexi know that Stefon is willing to stop at nothing in his quest to take over the Major Crimes Division. While Lexi continues to be groomed to become the chief of the division, Stefon stalks, harasses, and plots in an attempt to make Lexi's life at the Carroll County District Attorney's Office a living hell, hoping to make her quit or, better yet, get terminated. Stefon enlists the help of Melanie Price, the newly appointed district attorney in his war when he convinces her the case of serial killer Lenora Becker, which Lexi is prosecuting, needs to be sent back to the state attorney general's office. When the newly appointed district attorney is murdered, Stefon pounces on the opportunity to finally get rid of Lexi by putting her in the fight of her life. Lexi is accused and tried for the brutal slaying of Melanie Price. In a strange twist of events, while Lexi is housed at the Carroll County Jail while awaiting and during her trial, she is befriended by none other than serial killer Lenora Becker, who is housed in the cell next to Lexi's. Despite a valiant effort to defend Lexi, it soon becomes apparent to Lexi's best friend and top defense attorney, Shawn Murphy, that Lexi has been set up to take the fall for Melanie Price's murder. Lexi is convicted and sentenced to death by lethal injection. Lexi and Lenora meet up again while on death row, creating an unlikely alliance between the two. Prior to her own execution, Lenora Becker vows to help Lexi, whom she believes, along with Shawn, to be wrongly convicted, be set free. Lenora enlists the help of an old childhood friend, Maximus Williams, who uncovers the truth about the prosecution and conviction of Alexis Gordon.
