Mystery Woman Sleuth | Thriller Legal
About to take a controversial rap star to trial for a past
crime, Melanie Vargas receives an important piece of
information from his lawyer. In full confidence, on the
steps of New York City's federal courthouse, he tells her
that his client may have had ties to a wanted fugitive.
Moments later, a powerful car bomb blows the man to pieces,
with Melanie only steps away. As shocking as the murder is, it has other repercussions
for Melanie. Her relationship with the victim wasn't
strictly professional. While recovering from her breakup
with FBI Agent Dan O'Reilly, she had become attracted to
the charismatic lawyer. But after his death she realizes
that she knew very little about him--including the fact
that he was married. Determined to find the killer, Melanie enters a dangerous
world of subterfuge and double-crosses, going as far as the
glittering lights of Vegas to discover the truth. But the
more she digs, the more she finds troubling about her old
friend. More than one person had the motive to end his life. Meanwhile, the rapper's defense has been taken over by the
slickest shark in the business, a man of questionable
morals who may have had previous unlawful dealings with his
client. But the outcome of the case isn't the only thing on
the line. As the sole witness to the murder, Melanie is in
danger of losing her own life. It isn't long before she
realizes that she can't trust anybody, not even those
closest to her.
