Book Description
Hard-driving Attorney Nina Reilly returns from a near-fatal gunshot wound in
Motion to Suppress to take on the toughest and most intriguing case of her career.
Anxious to avoid the kind of case that almost killed her and determined to spend a restful winter at home in Lake Tahoe with her son Bobby, Attorney Nina Reilly vows to take on only the most uncomplicated cases. When filmmaker Terry London implores Nina to help her defend her documentary against charges of invasion of privacy, it seems an easy case to add to her work load. But Nina is soon wishing she'd never become involved, as it becomes clear that the film holds a crucial clue to a decades-old unsolved murder and her new client poses a greater danger than any criminal Nina has ever come up against. Before the filmmaker can make good on her mysterious threats to harm Nina, she's found murdered, and Nina finds herself in the middle of a full-blown homicide--homicide that is somehow connected to Nina's past. When an old lover surfaces, he brings painful memories and new dangers as Nina fights to protect herself, her troubled son Bobby, and the delicate balance of their new life together from the destructive wake of a killer's path.
