Fiction | Thriller
In this electrifying debut thriller, a
brilliant defense lawyer takes on a murder case with
ingenious twists Phoenix, Arizona,
1973. A beautiful woman, armed with a gun and accompanied by
her twelve-year-old daughter, enters a house. Shots are
fired. The woman and her daughter leave the house. Inside,
her husband lies dead. The case seems open and
shut. The cops, the attorney general's office, and the media
are certain the woman is guilty. The only witness to the
shooting is in a catatonic state and cannot testify. But the
murdered man's wealthy father believes he owes the woman
something and hires Dan Morgan, the best lawyer in Phoenix,
to defend her. When the legendary criminal attorney
takes on a case it's to win, no matter what the odds. But
for Morgan and his young protégé, Doug McKenzie, there are
no easy answers, only mysteries, and the question of
innocence and guilt take on profound new meaning.
Combining the riveting suspense of Presumed Innocent
with the raw ambition and power of All the King's
Men, this full-bodied novel introduces a writer of great
skill and insight into the human character.
