Riassunto

He snooped around a murder scene. Now he’s in the crosshairs. Thaddeus Murfee is a rookie lawyer with less than 18 months of courtroom experience, and completely unprepared for the complicated case that he is asked to defend. When a local waitress claims that she has been molested by a powerful businessman with mob ties, she asks Thad to represent her in a civil suit. But, when the accused turns up dead, and the waitress’s fingerprints are on the weapon, Thad finds himself having to defend her against a possible death penalty - and against retribution from the mob. In this small town, nothing is as it seems - and nobody is who they say they are. The Defendants is book 1 of the Thaddeus Murfee Legal Thriller Series, which has more than 1.5 million readers and counting, and made John Ellsworth into a household name. If you love page-turning thrillers with mystery, clandestine plotting, and a dash of romance, dive into the world of Thaddeus Murfee today!

Product Description:

When Thaddeus Murfee agreed to defend a young woman accused of murdering the man who carved his name in her chest, he thought that he and his new law practice were on their way. However, the Chicago Mob schemed to send the young woman to the death chamber in order to cover up its payola with the governor. Thaddeus craves the riches and fame that a successful trial lawyer can have, but he doesn't realize the price he is going to have to pay once the mob sends its enforcers after him. A hard fought trial is followed by a face off on a dark night between Thaddeus and Johnny "the Blade" Bladanni. You never win against the Mob, he is warned. Now the FBI has the lowdown on the players and Thaddeus needs their help but is afraid they will come after his client too. Thaddeus is caught between a rock and a hard place, with no choice-if he wants to live and set his client free.
