'The British John Grisham' RICHARD OSMAN

TO SAVE HIS DAUGHTER...HE MUST HELP A KILLER WALK FREE.

Eddie Flynn used to be a con artist. Then he became a lawyer. Turned out the two weren't that different.

It's been over a year since Eddie vowed never to set foot in a courtroom again. But now he doesn't have a choice. Olek Volchek, the infamous head of the Russian mafia in New York, has strapped a bomb to Eddie's back and kidnapped his ten-year-old daughter, Amy. Eddie only has forty-eight hours to defend Volchek in an impossible murder trial - and win - if he wants to save his daughter.

Under the scrutiny of the media and the FBI, Eddie must use his razor-sharp wit and every con-artist trick in the book to defend his 'client' and ensure Amy's safety. With the timer on his back ticking away, can Eddie convince the jury of the impossible?

IN A BROKEN JUSTICE SYSTEM, YOU DON'T NEED A GOOD LAWYER.
YOU NEED A DAMN GOOD CONMAN...MEET EDDIE FLYNN.
