Attorney Harrison J. Walker, known simply as Jaywalker, has just about finished serving his three-year suspension when he is tapped to represent a man arrested for vehicular homicide. The client, Carter Drake III, is accused of running a van full of school children off the road while intoxicated. Eight young children and the driver of the van are dead, and a witness got Drake's plate number as he fled the scene.
The case is open-and-shut and the odds for an acquittal aren't in Jaywalker's favor. When a drunk kills eight kids you can bet the public will be screaming for someone's head, but Carter Drake isn't about to lose his. A master manipulator, it's Drake who has the ace up his sleeve and when he pulls it out, it threatens to blow what should be a straightforward case right out of the water. It looks like justice in Rockland County might be hoodwinked by a rich man who is willing to use his own family to cover up his depraved indifference.
A real page-turner with a surprising, but satisfying, conclusion, DEPRAVED INDIFFERENCE offers up revenge as a dish best served cold.
An Audi sports car, speeding on the wrong side of the
road, forces an oncoming van off the road. The van bursts
into flames, killing all nine occupants ...eight of them
children.
Criminal defense attorney Harrison J. Walker,
known simply as Jaywalker, is trying to keep his nose
clean while serving a three-year suspension. But when a
woman seduces him into representing the Audi Assassin, a
man who also happens to be her husband, things get
messy.
Struggling with the moral issues surrounding this
case, Jaywalker tries to stay focused on his goal limiting
the damage to his client by exposing the legal system s
hypocrisy regarding drunk driving. But when he rounds a
blind corner in the case, he collides with a truth that
could turn his entire defense into disaster.
