Spoiler : Synopsis :
Valentine's Day! It's a day of love, happiness, and... murder?
Phoenix must defend a client who insists that she is the Cupid of legend while fighting against a prosecutor who heavily believes in the supernatural. Will Phoenix be able to successfully defend a literal goddess in court and save the day? Will he fail, leading to a world without the spread of love? Is all this talk about goddesses and Cupid even legitimate?
But just as important: what is Phoenix to make of a certain gift he received from a certain spirit medium?
