Více o knize

Mitchell McDeere, a top Harvard Law student from rural Kentucky, has his sights set on a prestigious career. He chooses the Memphis firm of Bendini, Lambert & Locke, known for its high salaries and zero turnover. However, Mitch's excitement turns to suspicion as he uncovers troubling events: two partners die in a mysterious diving accident, the firm boasts about its lack of resignations, and its security measures are alarmingly excessive. His investigation leads to a shocking revelation: the firm is controlled by a powerful Chicago crime family. Caught between the FBI, seeking an informant, and the firm, which offers wealth or threats to his life, Mitch faces a perilous choice. In a separate narrative, Darby Shaw, a law student in New Orleans, finds herself entangled in a deadly conspiracy after preparing a legal brief that inadvertently exposes a political scandal following the assassination of two Supreme Court justices. As she becomes a target, Darby goes underground and teams up with an ambitious reporter to unravel the truth. Together, they navigate a violent cover-up that stretches from Louisiana's bayous to the corridors of power, where someone is determined to eliminate any evidence of a horrific crime.
