Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A riveting legal tale.'-Kirkus Reviews IT'S 1983. AND A WRONGFUL DEATH CASE LOOKS LIKE MURDER. When the police discover a federal bank examiner dead on a deserted city street on Christmas Eve 1983, there's no evidence, no leads, and no suspects. Street-smart lawyer Connor J. Devlin, now a decade-plus into his outside-the-lines career, reluctantly takes up the case - prodded by his unconventional mentor Phil Goldberg, aka Goldie, a sexist, cigar-chomping, foul-mouthed legal genius. To find answers, Devlin enlists the scary-smart and tenacious Sloane Monae, a former college volleyball player and an ex-cop turned private detective. As the new duo start pulling the threads of the case, they find themselves equally intrigued with each other. They also unwittingly stumble into the savings-and-loan debacle of the 1980s, one of the biggest financial scams in American history. And those running the far-reaching fraud will stop at nothing to protect their ill-gotten gains.
