About the book

AN AMERICAN CLASSIC FROM THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING MASTER OF LEGAL THRILLERS

Kyle McAvoy is one of the greatest legal students of his generation. He has a brilliant mind and a glittering future ahead of him.

But he has a secret from the past that threatens to destroy his entire livelihood.

When this secret catches up with him in the form of a compromising video, Kyle is left with an impossible choice.

He can take a job in New York at the largest law firm in the world and share the sordid secrets of its biggest trial to date.

Or his past will be exposed to the masses.

It's a deadly game of blackmail. And someone is making him play.

    „Du bist verdammt clever, aber du bist nicht clever genug, um zu erkennen, dass dir das Wasser bis zum Hals steht.“ Leider gar nicht meines. Es wurde kein Gerichtsfall aufgearbeitet und leider war auch v.a. die Mitte sehr langatmig. Am frustrierendsten war jedoch das Ende, da wirklich nichts aufgeklärt wurde.
