<p><b>"<i>The Plea</i> is one of the most purely entertaining books you'll read this year. It's a blast." <br>--John Connolly, bestselling author of the Charlie Parker novels<br></b><br><b>"Rip-roaring legal thriller...Twisty, bloody, and convincing." --Ian Rankin</b><br><b><br>An innocent client. A wife in jeopardy. A locked room mystery. Who will take <i>The Plea</i>?</b> </p><p>Billionaire David Child swears he didn't murder his girlfriend, Clara. But the evidence overwhelmingly shows that David killed her: the security video showed no one else entering their apartment, the murder weapon was in his car, and he was covered in gunshot residue he can't explain. </p><p>The FBI believes David's arrest and obvious guilt could help them take down a huge money laundering scheme--if they can get him to testify. </p><p>Con-artist-turned-lawyer Eddie Flynn is given the job: persuade David to plead guilty and give the agents the evidence they need. If Eddie can't get David to take a plea bargain, the FBI has incriminating files on Eddie's wife--and will send her to jail. But David insists that he didn't murder anyone. </p><p>As the FBI pressures Eddie to secure the guilty plea, Eddie becomes increasingly convinced that David is telling the truth. With adversaries threatening, Eddie has to find a way to prove David's innocence and find out if there's any way he might have been framed. But the stakes are high: Eddie's wife is in danger. And not just from the FBI... </p><p><b>"Cavanagh's fast-paced, action-packed legal thriller is bound to grip John Grisham and Michael Connelly fans with its unexpected turns." </b><b>--<i>Library Journal</i>, starred review</b></p>
