Publisher's Synopsis
Nobody likes a killer, but sometimes you have to put your personal likes on hold when you're a professional.... and that's what attorney Peter Sharp must do when he the court appoints him to represent a professional killer who has specifically requested his services. Peter's ex-wife, the District Attorney, assures Peter that an agreed-to plea bargain is already in place, so all he has to do is stand next to his client while the guilty plea is entered. Peter agrees to the contemplated one-hour of work as a court-appointed defense attorney and makes the court appearance. But when the case is called, the surprises start, and don't stop until the unexpected end of this twelfth Peter Sharp Legal Mystery.
