In her Defense

Frank O''Connell''s need to live on the edge cost him his family, his home, and a partnership in his father-in-law''s prestigious D.C. firm. Then Ashley Bronson walks into his life. The murder of a former cabinet official has just propelled her from the society column to the front page, and, inexplicably, she wants Frank to defend her. Frank thinks his biggest challenge is defending a client against the prosecution''s overwhelming evidence. He''s got a lot to learn. Subsumed in a defense in which ethics are bent and morals compromised, a desperate Frank hits upon an inspired strategy -- and unwittingly becomes a dangerous threat to people in high places -- a threat that must be stopped no matter what the cost. Confronted by forces they don''t understand, besieged lawyer and client have only each other as the courtroom battle begins....
