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.
