About the Book
The hard-drinking party boy is guilty of murder. Or is he?
Andy Owens was drunk the night Nate McClellan fell off his father’s yacht. Although his memory is hazy and the evidence is stacked against him, Andy sincerely believes that he didn’t kill his best friend. But no one, including his defense attorneys, will believe him. Andy’s legal credentials aren’t sterling. He was almost last in his law school class, and he flunked the bar twice. But no one else is trying to keep him out of prison.
After her husband dies in another woman’s bed in Washington, D.C., criminal defense attorney, Charlotte Estes, returns to San Diego to begin a new life as a partner at Goldstein, Miller, Mahoney and Estes. But she can’t escape her past. The mysterious attempts on her life that began in D.C. follow her west where she doesn’t want to take on the impossible task of defending an obviously guilty Andy.
Sean Donovan’s partnership at Goldstein, Miller is hanging by a thread. He’s lost too many important cases in a row, and now he’s been saddled with another loser. The Owens brat is guilty, and not even bringing on a nationally famous attorney like Charlotte will save the son of the firm’s biggest client. Every lead Sean follows brings him to the same dead end: Andy killed Nate to get the girl.
Can Andy save himself? Why is Charlotte’s life in danger? Is Sean’s career going down in flames?
