Publisher Description

Feisty criminal attorney Jessica Ford has done her best to comply with the orders of the Secret Service’s unofficial witness protection program ever since she became the lone witness to the First Lady’s murder. Unfortunately, winning her first high-profile case for a prestigious Washington, D.C., law firm, subsequently landing her face all over the news, is not exactly “keeping a low profile.” Or so says hunky Secret Service agent Mark Ryan, whose newest assignment is keeping her safe at all costs. It just so happens he’s also her ex-boyfriend. The trial earns Jess a permanent spot on the firm’s legal defense team, replacing an associate who eloped and never came back. But Jess’s mind has raced from the moment the prosecution’s star witness shocked the courtroom with a revelation involving the handsome son of a powerful U.S. senator. Was the pretty young mother intimidated into changing her story on the stand? Why won’t she return Jess’s calls? Did Jess’s predecessor really just abandon her successful career? Or did both women mysteriously disappear? After Mark rescues Jess from an attack outside her apartment, she begins to consider the possibility that she is a target. Maybe it’s not so bad to have her irresistibly charming and hard-bodied former lover around for protection. The question is, which of the many inadvertent enemies Jess has made recently is he protecting her from? The investigation leads her to some startling coincidences — and to a teenage runaway who may just hold the missing link...if Jess can find her.

"Provides a good summary of the basic ways to think about issues of Justice with interesting examples that illustrate the main points. Be forwarned, however, as you quickly realize how far removed our political process has come from a rational discussion of important issues of public policy. Facebook discussions are just as bad, if not worse."

    " This book isn't bad, but in going for too much breadth I think Sandel sacrifices most of his momentum. Just when any individual thread is getting good, he moves on to the next topic. "

    " Putting philosophy of moral into the heart of public hottest issues, educational & enlightening. I bought this book in Narita Airport 1hr before departure as a 7 hour flight companion, what a purchase!. "

    " If you're interested in ethics even a little, this book will so fully challenge your thinking on what's right or not. I have to read it in short bits so I can fully digest the ideas he puts forward. Not at all preachy though, just thoughtful, even if being thoughtful is sometimes adversarial. "

    " This is pretty much an intro to political philosophy that is presented in a way that is interesting and easy to understand. Sandel should write a follow-up that is more advanced. "

    " Couldn't get through this book. The topic is interesting, but it seemed like the author tried to recreate a debate with himself and it just didn't work. To be fair, I prefer a more narrative format. "
