Description

With his fantastic first book, Special Conditions, Sheldon Siegel shipped lawful misinformation so thrilling, it attracted comparisons with the top-tier of courtroom thrillers. Today he's a brand new problem for protection lawyer Mike Daley--ex-priest, ex-spouse, ex-public defender--and it’s a higher-profile zinger: an incident he doesn’t believe he may get for a customer he can’t stay. It begins with a telephone call Mike Daley never likely to get, from District Attorney Prentice Marshall Gates III, San Francisco’s key police force official and front runner candidate for California attorney general. Buddies they’re not, but Gates wants Daley today--poorly.
