Court of Lies

الوصف

Review "Gerry Spence electrified the courtroom every time he argued a case. Now, the legendary lawyer makes his crime novel debut, and lightning strikes again. Court of Lies is a stunning drama filled with characters as smart and surprising as Spence himself, and brilliant plotting that twists and turns to an ending you'll never see coming. I loved it!" --Linda Fairstein, New York Times bestselling author of Killer Look"Witty and fast-paced, this novel is filled with tension, suspense and sharply drawn characters. And the courtroom drama sizzles!" --William Martin, New York Times bestselling author of Bound for Gold"Classic noir. A rollercoaster ride through a courtroom case by one of America's foremost lawyers. Terrific book--can't wait for the movie." --David Black, winner of two Edgars, a dozen Emmys and Writers Guild nominations and awards, and author of Fast Shuffle"Its courtroom scenes have the ring of truth (no surprise, considering the author's long career as a prosecutor and defense attorney), as do the characters . . . [A]n easy novel to read and a difficult one to put down." --Booklist"Court of Lies is best filed under courtroom noir, a la Michael Connolly's superb Lincoln Lawyer series featuring Mickey Haller. Spence's prose is as polished as his final summation to the jury, helping to make the case that he belongs alongside John Grisham and Scott Turow as the foremost legal thriller writers of our time.--Sunday Providence Journal About the Author Gerry Spence court trials are studied in law schools, and he is universally celebrated as one of the greatest courtroom lawyers of our time.
