The Attorney - Hardcover
Tired of the corrosive politics of Capital City, hot-shot lawyer Paul Madriani has reached a watershed in his life. A new practice in San Diego, the mellow swells of the Pacific, and if things work out, a future with Susan McKay - that's the plan.
But when Paul meets an old client, whose eight-year-old granddaughter has been abducted, he is drawn into a case which destroys everything he believes in.

Review:
Gripping... Very good indeed (Bookseller)
'The real drama, as usual in Martini's books, is in the courtroom. The exchanges between the opposing lawyers and their witnesses are often riveting and the eventual exposure of the guilty party comes as a genuine surprise' Sunday Telegraph
'A fine courtroom drama... Martini's writing is pacy but not rushed and he builds up to the courtroom climax with a steady hand, setting the scene in a completely believable manner... This is a back-to-basics courtroom thriller with a believable plot, a sympathetic hero who is not near-genius smart, and a little bit of downbeat humour stirred into the pot' Irish News Belfast
