Fatal
Innocence
One Sentence Hook
Mike Talbert, an ethically
challenged and ruthlessly ambitious lawyer, decides to put his love life
temporarily on hold when his crooked boss enlists his aid in defending a
prominent politician against corruption charges, but Mike is dismayed to learn
that his girlfriends have other ideas.
Book Cover Blurb
Mike Talbert is tasked by his boss Casey Brook with devising a scheme to deep-six an incriminating draft email from the personal computer of a prominent politician with presidential ambitions without risking charges of evidence tampering or obstruction of justice. Never one to let ethics or the law get in the way of his ambitions, Mike comes up with a plan to enlist professional thieves to steal the computer without advising his client in advance so as to make the theft look as authentic as possible. The plan works better than Mike or his boss could have expected, but complications arise when the women in their lives turn on them in unexpected ways.
The author is a retired partner in an international law firm and understands the complexities and nuances of life in a large law firm. Unlike most legal thrillers, which require a suspension of disbelief the size of the Grand Canyon, Fatal Innocence puts you in the shoes of a real lawyer tackling real-life problems in a unique and exciting way. Throw in a little romance and two adorable dogs and you have a real treat in store.
