Description
Can the truth be proven with lies?
Troubled by the senseless death of his wife, Patrick Moynihan, a highly respected attorney, throws himself into his work as he attempts to put behind him the nightmares that plague his soul. A provocative diversion arises when he takes on the defense of a high-profile murder case.
His best friend and investigator, Tommy Krumholtz, joins Patrick at his side once again. They soon discover that their worst adversary may be the wealthy and powerful father of their client.
The case draws media attention over the discovery of compelling new evidence against their client, as well as the exposure of the corruption of key figures within the justice system.
A cast of unique and unusual characters fills the story, leading to a trial with unanticipated twists, ultimately revealing the power of an underworld that may be the only real seat of judgment.
Advance Praise
After reading the book's summary I decided to give it a try. Was I in for a tremendous surprise. This book has the plotting of author Michael Connelly with the sharp characters found in the best of Elmore Leonard novels.The summary does not do the book justice as to what is between the covers. Not the same old formula most crime novels continue to rehash. From the plot to the wonderful development of characters, the insight of civilized psychos, tortured souls and the downright deranged...the book is a page turner. The plot moves rapidly and so does your heart as you read. Mr. Smith does an excellent job of describing the justice system and the people that populate it. The charisma of the good and bad of the characters gives a dimension seldom reached by an author. While reading the book I was taken up with the feeling that the author was writing about a truth that few even realize exists in judicial system. I highly recommend this book. This is a great read...don't disappoint yourself by not indulging in this roller coaster of a novel. - 5 star Amazon review
