Biloxi’s best criminal defense attorney has never lost a case. Then his client’s beautiful wife is murdered, and America’s #1 lawyer suddenly becomes its #1 suspect.
Stafford Lee Penney is a small-town lawyer with a big-time reputation for winning every case he tries. In his sharp suits and polished Oxford shoes, Penney is Biloxi, Mississippi’s #1 Lawyer and top local celebrity.
Just as Penney notches his latest courtroom victory, his wife is scandalously killed. He spirals into a legal and personal losing streak, damaging his reputation and ruining his career.
That’s when Penney makes a bold decision. He stops trading on his power-lawyer identity and creates a new one: lawyer lifeguard. Moonlighting at the beach, showing up to court in flip-flops, mentoring a law student, the new Penney is at first unrecognizable.
It’s said that a lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client. But when Penney is accused of murder, the #1 Lawyer will find a way to triumph.

Title: Great thriller
Review: The story of Stafford Lee's riveting career and his abrupt fall had me interested from the beginning. Though, a critique I have is the fast pace writing within the court room scenes can be a little jarring at times. The changes in the situation for Stafford Lee and the characters are relatable and dynamic. But some of the characters, especially Stafford-Leeâs wife, arenât as fleshed out as I would like it to be. I liked the unique look at a justice system, determining to mete out justice without playing favorites. The scenes with the victims were disturbingly realistic as was the emotions in the courtroom when evidence was presented. I liked the banter between the characters and the realism of what happened to Stafford Lee when his wife was killed. His downward spiral was realistic and heart-breaking. All of the secondary characters play an integral part in the story and donât feel like they were shoehorned into Stafford-Leeâs life plot. My favorite character was Jenny, the PI who helps Stafford Lee on his cases and who is there for him personally when he falls to the bottom of his career. Overall, This is a well-written page turner, in a style of short chapters and with sub-plots that all tie well together. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end and would totally recommend it.

Title:
Review: Spannender Kriminalroman von Vielschreiber Patterson. Titelheld ist ein erfolgreicher Anwalt, der selbst unter Mordverdacht gerät und sich mit einer Familie der lokalen Mafia auseinandersetzen muss. Gut geschrieben, mit überraschenden Wendungen - auch wenn man manchmal das Gefühl hat, dass die erste Hälfte des Buches und das furiose Finale nur lose zusammenhängen und ebenso gut in zwei getrennten Büchern hätten entwickelt werden können.
