About this listen

Jessica Nagoshi, the beautiful heiress to her father's billion dollar empire, is being groomed, along with her brother Peter, to take control of Nagoshi Inc. That is, until she is brutally murdered in the greenhouse of her father's extensive Wellesley estate. Boston criminal defence attorney David Cavanaugh is thrust into this high-society case when James Matheson, a wealthy, connected but unaffected law student is arrested for Jessica's murder. For in James he sees traces of his younger self - Matheson is dedicated, ambitious, but still idealistic enough to believe that justice will always prevail. From the outset David is hampered by unspoken alliances, corporate malpractice, love, lust and a disastrous misplace of trust that will leave his case in tatters. But in the end, nothing can prepare him for the truth - and the diabolical lengths some will go to, to preserve their life of privilege.©2008 Sydney Bauer.

Critic Reviews

"Terrific legal suspense." (Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author)
"Watch out Grisham." (The Sydney Morning Herald)
"The third in a series of accomplished legal thrillers...[Bauer] has well and truly mastered the essentials...twists, turns, pace and more pace. Hard to resist." (Australian Bookseller & Publisher)
"David Cavanaugh, hotshot Boston criminal lawyer, is hired to defend a wealthy Ivy League college student who is accused of the gruesome murder of the daughter of a powerful Japanese businessman. Bill Ten Eyck's talent is on display with his deliberate and well-acted character portrayals, which are perfect for this suspense-filled mystery. From the anger in the voice of the ruthless brother of the victim to the sneers in the voices of the elitist students, Ten Eyck’s narration is creative and exhilarating. The unique voices and well-done accents are the icing on the cake of a satisfying story." (AudioFile Magazine)
