Summaries

A New York district attorney works and flirts with his adversary and her kooky artist client, who is on trial for a murder she didn't commit.

District Attorney Tom Logan is set for higher office, at least until he becomes involved with defence lawyer Laura Kelly and her unpredictable client Chelsea Deardon. It seems the least of Chelsea's crimes is the theft of a very valuable painting, but as the women persuade Logan to investigate further and to cut some official corners, a much more sinister scenario starts to emerge.—Jeremy Perkins {J-26}
