An explosive novel of suspense,as a trial lawyer faces his worst fear- freeing a dangerous psychopath, and risks paying the price...in blood.
a good lawyer, trial mystery
A legal thriller with an interesting twist.
First book I read by this author and found him engaging and always keeping you guessing with the suspense. Good book, I will read more of his titles. K.C.C.
Defense attorney David Nash has made a career out of setting monsters free--and no one does it better. Now a case has come to "The Ice Man" that could help cleanse Nash of the guilt and doubts that torment him: that rarest of all defendants, an innocent man.
A fellow lawyer has been accused of a heinous crime--the brutal murder of an undercover vice cop. But the case that is supposed to be Nash's redemption could prove to be his downfall, dragging him into a dark and sinister world where lies and the truth are interchangeable; where the manipulator becomes the manipulated; and where every answer spawns more complex and terrifying questions. And as the shadows close in around him, the final question that remains for David Nash concerns his own fate: life...or death?
