But now the Economic Crimes Commission wants the corrupt, untouchable Lasko brought down. Young, ambitious U.S. Attorney Christopher Paget is the man chosen to take on the job. To gather enough evidence against him without alienating Lasko's friends in the White House, Paget has to go by the book. But Lasko makes his own rules. And survival and elimination of his enemies are the most important of them all ...
The Lasko Tangent - the unstoppable thriller of one man's fight for justice, the man who became the hero of Richard North Patterson's international bestsellers Degree of Guilt and Eyes of A Child.
