Renowned trial lawyer and award-winning author Cody Fowler Davis follows up his debut novel Green 61 with this new legal thriller which once again pits optimistic, good-natured attorney Anderson Parker against the ruthless Justin Cartwright III. This time around, Justin enlists the help of an attractive paralegal named Nicole to infiltrate Anderson's firm and wreak havoc on his personal and professional life. While his marriage and career are being threatened by Justin and Nicole's ruthless tactics, Anderson's legal team dedicates themselves to several thought provoking cases which allow the reader to have a behind-the-scenes view of how a jury decides fault, and values severe personal injury and death. Only an author who has taken to trial numerous high-profile cases can provide such accurate details. The reader is challenged just like the jury... A mother holds her intoxicated college-bound daughter in her arms as she dies from internal injuries suffered in a car accident - should the father who served alcohol to the minors be held financially accountable? .... The career of a professional tennis player ends when his leg is sliced open by a barracuda during a snorkeling trip in Key West -- is it fair to require the dive boat operation to pay because its employees provided faulty equipment? ... A young girl is left brain damaged after a wave runner strikes her head while she plays in the gentle surf -- does justice dictate that the manufacturer should pay for all future medical treatment? These fascinating cases lead up to the final trial where Anderson and Justin challenge each other, not as lawyers, but as parties suing each other and seeking vindication. Who will win the last battle, and who will be destroyed?
