Synopsis

In this sequel to the author's The Summit Syndrome, Alan Benedict, a renowned attorney, faces up to his unrequited adversary, Professor Albert Ovenstone, a prominent legal academic and author, across thecourt room floor in a duel to the death of the career of one of the them. The stakes are high and there can only be one survivor.

Benedict believes that the outcome of their previous court room encounter did not see true justice being done and that through devious and dishonest means Ovenstone had figuratively speaking gotten away with murder. He is determined to bring Ovenstone to book and to attain the proper result to the confrontation - to reach the summit of his quest for righteousness to prevail.

In the relentless pursuit of his objective Benedict places everything at risk, his career, his marriage, his self-esteem. His adversary is intent on destroying him at all costs and by whatever means without regard to honesty or propriety. The case takes many twists and turns and has unexpected and sensational developments both inside and outside the courtroom. The challenges that arise in Benedict's personal life take on proportions beyond the ambit of the court case and go to the very core of his being. He reaches a watershed in his life. It is the moment of truth. He has to succeed to salvage his career and his personal life.
