Description
Martini has joined the front rank of novelists whose legal thrillers have created a phenomenon in recent years. Now, the writer hailed by Vincent Bugliosi as “a new literary lion in the fictional crime genre” delivers a seamless novel of high suspense and brilliant courtroom intrigue.
Over just five days, the rural college town of Davenport, California, is rocked by two sets of brutal murders. When two more bodies are discovered, Paul Madriani, the brilliant defense attorney from Compelling Evidence, is tagged as the special prosecutor who must find the murderer.
“Steve Martini is a master of the genre, ” says John Grisham. “He writes with the agile, episodic style of a lawyer quick on his feet and one step ahead of his many enemies.”
