***THE GRIPPING FIRST THRILLER IN THE MULTI-MILLION COPY SELLING SERIES***
'Everything a great thriller should be ' MARK BILLINGHAM
'Steve Cavanagh's twists hit you between the eyes. You never see them coming' ANTHONY HOROWITZ
'The British John Grisham' RICHARD OSMAN
TO SAVE HIS DAUGHTER...HE MUST HELP A KILLER WALK FREE.
Eddie Flynn used to be a con artist. Then he became a lawyer. Turned out the two weren't that different.
It's been over a year since Eddie vowed never to set foot in a courtroom again. But now he doesn't have a choice. Olek Volchek, the infamous head of the Russian mafia in New York, has strapped a bomb to Eddie's back and kidnapped his ten-year-old daughter, Amy. Eddie only has forty-eight hours to defend Volchek in an impossible murder trial - and win - if he wants to save his daughter.
Under the scrutiny of the media and the FBI, Eddie must use his razor-sharp wit and every con-artist trick in the book to defend his 'client' and ensure Amy's safety. With the timer on his back ticking away, can Eddie convince the jury of the impossible?
IN A BROKEN JUSTICE SYSTEM, YOU DON'T NEED A GOOD LAWYER.
YOU NEED A DAMN GOOD CONMAN...MEET EDDIE FLYNN.

"Puts the 'thrill' back in 'legal thriller'. Non-stop action, unexpected and totally cool plot twists, a sympathetic genius of a con-man/attorney, and a clock that never ever ever stops ticking -- this isn't narrative drive, it's rocket-like narrative propulsion! Hop aboard and enjoy the ride!" - John Lescroart
"Like Mickey Haller and Mitch McDeere before him, readers will love lawyer Eddie Flynn, the star of this high-octane, hugely entertaining legal thriller. On the evidence of this blistering debut, we'll be hearing much more of Steve Cavanagh." - Brian McGilloway
"Imagine THE VERDICT's Frank Galvin crossed with THE FIRM's Mitch McDeere and you'd get something like Eddie Flynn, the quick thinking, troubled, kinetic lead of Steve Cavanagh's debut thriller . . .

"A full-on thrill-ride that hits the gas on page one and doesn't let up until the end. Steve blends a taut legal thriller with a ticking-clock suspense plot and throws in a great protagonist in the form of Eddie Flynn that readers will want to see again and again. A terrific debut." - Stuart Neville
