He ran from a murder he didn’t commit. By the time it was over, he was guilty.
Portland, 2006. Dexter Hart is the best-known trial lawyer in the city, a functioning alcoholic, and a man who has just walked out of rehab for the third time. That night, outside a 7-Eleven on Burnside, a meth-addicted kid pulls a switchblade on him. Dex puts him on the ground and walks away.
Minutes later the kid is dead on the sidewalk. Dex didn’t do it. And he knows exactly how this ends, because he has spent thirty years watching juries convict men who merely looked guilty.
So he does what an ex-CIA operative with an offshore account and a forger on retainer can do. He sells the house, buys four identities, and disappears into Bangkok.
He does not disappear well enough. The dead boy’s mother has money and grief in equal measure, and she hires the best private investigator in Oregon to hunt him across Asia. Back in Portland, homicide detective Marty Blazer keeps working the case for the opposite reason: she is the one person who believes Dexter Hart is innocent.
Then the men Dex pays to fly him quietly out of Thailand decide he is worth more as a hostage than as a client, and in one room, in a few seconds, the innocent man ceases to exist.
From the bars of Sukhumvit to the back streets of Angeles City, hunted now by a crime family that does not stop at borders, Dex learns the cost of the freedom he bought.
“An edgy, swiftly paced … tale of an innocent man on the lam.” — Kirkus Reviews

Escape from Justice (Paperback)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: CitiRetail, Stevenage, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: new. KRUEGER, JESSICA (illustrator). Paperback. In 2006, Dexter Hart is the most talented partner in a prestigious Portland, Oregon law firm. But when Dexter kills a drug dealer in self-defense in downtown Portland, he must flee to Bangkok, Thailand. The victim's mother hires Brian Stevens, an experienced American private-eye, to chase Dexter, and this sets off a chain reaction of catastrophic violence in three countries. With nowhere to turn, Dexter hires two members of a crime family to facilitate his escape from Bangkok. The two men attempt to extort money from him, and he kills them in a violent fight. Bangkok police arrest Dexter just as revenge-seeking members of the crime family are hunting him down. He escapes to the Philippines, but happiness is temporary. Dexter is forced to kill to save his life and that of his fiance. The psychological thriller suspense novel provides psychological insight into the main character's motivations, fears, and secrets. It focuses on four main characters--a man fleeing justice, his girlfriend, a Black Woman police homicide detective, and a male private eye. This item is printed on demand.
