‘Scottoline is wickedly funny... Mary Higgins Clark meets Susan Isaacs meets John Grisham’

HARD HITTING, TOUGH TALKING LEGAL CRIME THRILLER FROM EDGAR AWARD WINNING LISA SCOTTOLINE
Rita Morrone is a fast-talking poker player, as well as being one of the toughest trial lawyers in Philadelphia. She loves taking risks, hates to lose, and can’t resist a challenge ... So when a distinguished federal judge – and her prospective father-in-law – is accused of sexually harassing his young secretary, Morrone takes on the defence of what becomes one of the most high-profile cases in the country.
But then the game turns serious and Morrone finds herself at the centre of a murder case, with her client as prime suspect. Bluffing her way into the murder investigation, Morrone uncovers shocking new evidence and decides to end the lethal game. She lays it all on the line for the highest stake ever – her life.
Filled with plot twists, compelling characters, stinging wit and gripping suspense, 'Running from the Law' shows exactly why Lisa Scottoline is one of the strongest players in the legal thriller game.
” A pacy page-turner ... Fast, unpredictable and tense, it’s a cleverly plotted entertainment that makes some serious points under the thrills”
