Pedlock At Law/The Crime

A TOWERING DYNASTY - A LEGACY OF PRIDE AND RAW COURAGE

With all the surging passion and unbridled fury that marked his magnificent epics The Pedlocks and Pedlock And Sons, Stephen Longstreet has made "the crime of the century" - the savage murder and mutilation of a minister and his married lover - the subject of a taut, spellbinding novel.

Accused of the act are three prominent citizens - the minister's wife and her two brothers. And, at the center of this unforgettable novel - forging yet another link in the Pedlock's unbroken dynastic chain - stands Abraham Lincoln Pedlock, the fiercely determined courtroom giant whose destiny is bonded inextricably to their own.
