"Erin McCabe's years as a criminal defense attorney have prepared her for almost anything, except being on the opposite side of the interrogation table. A new client--a successful financial adviser--was found stabbed to death on the beach near his palatial Jersey Shore home. The time of death is estimated to be during Erin's one and only consultation with him, during which he revealed that he was secretly transgender. As the last person to see him alive, Erin's now the prime suspect. If the evidence were simply circumstantial, Erin is sure she and her law partner, Duane Swisher, could prevail. But there are entanglements that can't be easily explained, and connections to powerful unscrupulous politicians who hold a lot of grudges. While the investigation unfolds, Erin and Duane are called on to represent a mother charged with abducting her child--a hot-button case that has both private and public implications for Erin. As she battles one prosecutor who wants to see her charged with murder, and another determined to send her to jail for refusing to divulge her client's location, Erin also faces a devastating family tragedy. With her career and her relationship on the line, and her life being targeted by a desperate nemesis, there has never been more at stake--or fewer places to turn . . ."-- No library descriptions found. |
