Synopsis
In this hard-hitting debut novel, John Hart tells a fast-paced suspense story packed with stunningly well-realized characters. When defense lawyer Work Pickens finds out that his father's body has been discovered in connection with a brutal murder case, Pickens starts his own investigation--one that, along with creating conflicts with the cops and the system, will dredge up some dark secrets about his family. This is no paint-by-numbers legal thriller; Work Pickens is portrayed with quite a bit of depth, and his off-the-cuff observations about the nature of criminals, and humanity in general, have a tendency to ring true.

Industry Reviews
(starred review) "[A]n exceptionally deep and complex mystery thriller....Few readers will be able to resist devouring this tour-de-force in one or two sittings-or clamoring for more John Hart."
(01/16/2006)

"In a top-notch debut, Hart's prose is like Raymond Chandler's, angular and hard." --Rating: A
