Opis

Terry Lewis s second courtroom novel features Ted s partner, Paul Morganstein. While defending his late brother s best friend on a murder charge, Paul obtains Privileged Information (which he is ethically bound not to disclose) leading him to conclude that his client committed another murder thirty years ago. The victim? Paul s brother. Paul takes on the biggest company with the deepest pockets in the Panhandle, defending a client who, incredibly, seems less concerned than his attorney that he s facing murder one. The deeper Paul digs, the more likely it seems his client not only killed the vice president of Pinnacle Paper Company but knows a lot more than he ll say about the death of Paul s brother, David. Investigation into the Pinnacle case is turning up new evidence that reveals more about David s life and death than Paul can deny. Does Paul honor the sacred oath of confidentiality and allow his brother s murderer to go free, or does he breach that duty in the interest of a higher morality, a greater justice? Moreover, will his client decide that there is really only one way to be sure that Paul doesn t disclose this privileged information ?"
