A dying lawyer. A sociopathic surgeon. A trial where the truth is the first casualty.
Dr. Rick Hardy was a brilliant surgeon who decided who lived and who died. Now, the Angel of Death is a capital murder defendant facing the needle, his vast fortune frozen by the state. Refusing to submit to the system, the arrogant medical oracle seeks out the only man ruthless enough to secure his freedom: Jack Kincaid.
Kincaid is a fifty-two-year-old monument to bad decisions and unhealthy living. Abrasive, theatrical, and brilliantly manipulative, Kincaid controls juries better than anyone in the city. He takes the unwinnable case for a payday and revenge, but he's hiding a fatal secret-his heart is failing, and he is running out of time.
For Kincaid, this trial isn't just about the money. It's about malice. The lead prosecutor is Alexander Holt, the rigidly righteous attorney who married Kincaid's ex-wife and is raising his estranged son. To publicly destroy the man who stole his family, Kincaid is willing to cross every ethical boundary in the book, including hunting down the state's fragile star witness.
But as the courtroom erupts into a scorched-earth proxy war, a terrifying pact of mutual salvation is forged. Hardy accurately diagnoses Kincaid's ticking-clock heart condition from behind the glass of a county jail cell, locking the two alpha predators into a deadly embrace. Hardy needs Kincaid's legal mastery to beat the law. Kincaid needs Hardy's surgical genius to beat death.
In a trial where justice is an illusion and every witness is a target, two monsters are about to unleash hell. But when the final verdict is read, the true cost of survival will be paid in blood...
For Lucre and Malice.
Welcome to the trial of Dr. Rick Hardy and the spectacle that is Jack Kincaid.Also from
