CG3 - An advance reading copy paperback book in very good condition that has some bumped corners, some scattered light wrinkling and crease, tanning and light shelf wear. 9"x6", 373 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. ROUGH JUSTICE is the story of a top-tier criminal defense lawyer who discovers that her client is guilty of murder, just as the jury begins to deliberate his fate. After her client's murder trial is over and with his acquittal only hours away, criminal lawyer Marta Richter finds out that she has been sold a bogus self-defense claim. The truth is that her client, ruthless businessman Elliot Steere, murdered a homeless man during an apparent carjacking. Enraged at being tricked, Marta decides to prove Steere guilty in the few hours left before the jury returns, and in the midst of the worst blizzard Philadelphia has seen in years. She drafts her associates, Judy Carrier and Mary DiNunzio, to help. Steere, though in jail, is far from helpless. He counters with his own plan to stop the associates and kill Marta. Benedetta "Bennie" Rosato, witty lawyer from LEGAL TENDER, is now the managing partner of the all-woman firm hired by Steere. Bennie steps into the action when she realizes that Marta, who was hired as outside counsel on the Steere case, now has plans to ruin their client, and their firm in the process. But Bennie must use all of her powers if she is to bring Steere to justice in her own way.
