Another great
story from MG – one you really feel part of and get to believe in the
characters.
A Scott Fenney was
a top flight lawyer with all the luxuries it brings – house, car, free
insurance and club memberships, etc., but then he disobeyed his boss and
represented a black prostitute accused of killing a senator’s son. He lost his job but won his case and made his
reputation for taking and winning the case.
Unfortunately the prostitute took an overdose shortly after being set
free and Scott then adopted her little black daughter, Pyjamae, to be a friend
for his own daughter Boo.
Scott has lost his
luxury life and also his wife Rebecca who left him because they were now so
poor and went off with a golf pro, Trey Rawlings. So Scott is now a poor, struggling lawyer but
then he gets a call from his ex-wife as she has been accused of murdering her
lover Trey.
Scott drops
everything and takes his family and small law firm to Galveston, an island on
the Gulf of Mexico, where to every ones amazement he takes on the case. And so we follow the investigation through
until it ends in the trial, with several twists to the story.
All of MG’s books
are based on the law but he has the knack of making it interesting.
A great story full
of love, lust, humour and pathos.
