Robin Lockwood is a young attorney with an unusual claim to fame: she is an accomplished former MMA fighter. She is approached by a young college student who desires to sue her rapist in civil court. The young man is an accomplished college athlete and insists on his innocence, despite the strong DNA evidence against him. Robin Lockwood agrees to handle the suit and is present for the young man's trial. She observes him get convicted and sentenced. Shortly thereafter, a second rape occurs and the evidence seems to prove the impossible: that the man just sent to prison committed both rapes. Of course, this is impossible and Robin knows she must find the truth.

A Perfect Alibi by Phillip Margolin is a thriller like few others. Margolin has once again written a novel that is sure to be a best seller. He has brought back the main character from The Third Victim and pits her against a privileged accused rapist and a district attorney who will do anything to win. Margolin draws from a wealth of real-world experience as both a trial and appellate attorney and the result is a novel that is as real as tomorrow's headlines. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and give it 4/5 stars.
