Thriller
"Punishment Will Be Served" It was a day like any other at
the West Palm Beach courthouse -- that is until the bomb
went off and set the mayhem in motion. Bailiff Casey Portman
arrived too late for her morning coffee, but early enough to
see the beginning of a series of mishaps, mistakes, and
murders that would tie the justice system in knots. At the
center of it all is the trial of the decade in her judge's
courtroom, a case nicknamed a "Dogicide" for the man charged
with murder using his pit bull as a weapon. Hotshot
prosecutor Charlie Graham is ready to put someone behind
bars, but is he up to the legal challenges? And does anyone think that the victim's wealthy parents
might want justice done their way? Casey wants to be more
like her boss, a strong, capable female judge, but she wants
a good man and a good lover even more. She gets a taste of
both and a chance to catch a killer. The jury is frantic for
a chance to do justice and the lawyers are desperate to win.
But no one sees the twists and turns on the horizon -- at
least not in time to make a difference. Linda Rocker
received a master's degree from Case Western Reserve
University and graduated magna cum laude from Cleveland
Marshall Law School, where she served as an editor of The
Law Review. She practiced defense litigation at a major law
firm in Cleveland and in 1989 was appointed to the Common
Pleas Court of Cuyahoga County.
