Description

When Deputy District Attorney Rachel Knight's journey home is interrupted by screaming sirens, she decides to follow them.

But what she finds when she arrives at a sleazy LA motel shatters her world: her trusted colleague Jake lies dead beside the body of a teenage male prostitute.

The police say murder/suicide. Rachel's gut says different.

Her search for proof will take her through the dark and tangled city, from its wealthy suburbs to its violent heart.

And a truth so dangerous it could kill her.

Reviews

You must read this book: it is wildly and complexly plotted, ebulliently witty and filled with riotous humor; it details the inner workings of the L.A. legal system with unprecedented accuracy and verve - and to top it off, it is a damn, damn, good thriller. - James Ellroy

Marcia Clark's debut novel showcases her experience and knowledge of the legal system. The pace, plot and dialogue are as sharp as they come in the genre. - David Baldacci

This introduction to LA special prosecutor Rachel Knight charms from the first line then surfs a tide of knockabout humour, sassy backchat and armour-piercing observation - Daily Telegraph

Taut, compelling, and accomplished, with a gritty authenticity that comes from an insider's knowledge of the criminal justice system...A first rate legal thriller - Meg Gardiner

Knight makes a compelling protagonist - rebellious, straight-forward, salty - Guardian

An accomplished debut...Clark is a polished writer who knows her material - Sunday Telegraph Australia

Her first legal thriller, about a tenacious Los Angeles DA, is on the money - Daily Mail

A corker of a debut novel - Kirkus Review
