Synopsis

Nominated for the Edgar and Shamus Awards, David Rosenfelt s debut novel, Open and Shut, was widely praised by readers and critics. Now Rosenfelt returns with a riveting new mystery, First Degree, featuring irreverent and dynamic lawyer Andy Carpenter… When a cop s body is found burned and decapitated, the last thing Andy Carpenter expected is for a stranger to waltz into his office and admit to the crime. For the wise-cracking millionaire defense attorney suffering from lawyer s block, the case looks like a no-brainer…until the cops pick up another suspect: Andy s lead P.I. Laurie Collins, who happens to be the love of his life. Soon Laurie s facing conviction for the grisly murder and Andy must desperately try to save her. All he had wanted was a case to sink his teeth into. Now he gets one that s a kick in the head…and the heart.
