Publisher Description
A year after the devastating murder of his wife, attorney David Sloane has returned to Seattle after three months in Mexico. At a black-tie dinner where he’s been persuaded to give the keynote address, Sloane reconnects with Barclay Reid, opposing counsel in his most prominent case. Barclay is suffering from her own personal tragedy — the death of her teenage daughter from a drug overdose. In the aftermath, Barclay has begun an intense crusade against the Russian drug traffickers she holds responsible for her daughter’s death, pursuing them with a righteousness that matches Sloane’s own zeal for justice. Despite their adversarial past, Sloane is drawn to Barclay and for the first time since his wife died, he finds himself beginning to have romantic feelings again. But when Barclay’s crusade stalls and a Russian drug dealer turns up dead, she stands accused of murder, and Sloane is her chosen defender. Amid the swirling media frenzy, in his first criminal case, Sloane finds himself once again in harm’s way, while mounting evidence suggests that Barclay is a woman with many secrets — and may not be quite as innocent as she seems. With his signature fast-paced, page-turning action and exhilarating plot twists, Robert Dugoni once again proves why he’s so often been named the heir to Grisham’s literary throne.

" Well paced, interesting plot. But serious plausibility problems, so serious the book isn't great. "
— Al, 10/17/2013 -
" I enjoyed this book. It had quite an intricate plot, but not so much that you couldn't keep track of what was going on. Dugoni seems to be getting better at least in my opinion. "

" Good page turner but nothing special "
— Lavanita, 4/8/2013 -
" This was a good legal thriller with believable twists and turns. "
— Lena, 4/1/2013 -
" This is my favourite book by Dugoni. The plot is developed extremely well, with strong and believable characters, good dialogue, and a writing style that lends itself to make the reader stay up much longer than intended not wanting to put the book down "
— Ricardo, 3/19/2013 -
" Dugoni is an upcoming Grisham, except that so far he writes compelling mystery, but without the author's politics interjected. This was certainly not the case in Grisham's "The Confession." "
— Joan, 2/3/2013 -
" Very good fast moving read. Characters were interesting and had depth. Look forward to reading more of Robert Dugoni's novels. "

— Joe, 6/29/2012 -
" I had not anything else by this author before I had won this book in a contest. I'm glad to have been introduced to this author. I was entertained by this mystery. It did indeed have plenty of twists and turns and the court scenes were compelling. I will be getting hold of his other books. "
— Meera, 2/8/2012 -
" This book was hard to get through--not near as good as his previous books. "
— Shirley, 12/17/2011 -
" Another great book from Robert Dugoni in the David Sloane series. I love that they are set in Seattle (and, even BURIEN!!!). It's great to go along with the characters to familiar places around home! "
