Fresh out of law school, London Vaughn discovers there's no room in Denver's prominent law firms for a middle-of-the-class graduate. While barely making ends meet as a waitress, she encounters a beautiful woman who engages her services irrespective that she has no experience, no office and no reputation. Almost immediately, London and her client are thrust into the deadly throes of a high-stakes international thriller of unimaginable scope.

Initially published more than a decade ago as Attorney's Run, this Nick Teffinger thriller is now being brought back to market after a long hiatus away. It has been given a new name, a new cover, and refreshed editing. We hope you enjoy it.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS

The Nick Teffinger thrillers are all self-contained within their own four corners and can be read in any order.

For over a decade, R.J. Jagger's thrillers have been widely acclaimed by the most established and reputable book review organizations in the publishing industry, including Library JournaL, Kirkus Reviews, Booklist and Foreword Reviews:

"A terrifying, gripping cross between James Patterson and John Grisham. Jagger has created a truly killer thriller." J.A. Konrath

"As engaging as the debut [Witness Chase], this exciting blend of police procedural and legal thriller recalls the early works of Scott Turow and Lisa Scottoline." Library Journal

"The well-crafted storyline makes this a worthwhile read. This novel has a riveting plot." Kirkus Reviews

"Verdict: The pacing is relentless in this debut, a hard-boiled novel with a shocking ending. The supershort chapters will please those who enjoy a James Patterson--style page-turner" Library Journal

A "clever and engrossing mystery tale involving gorgeous women, lustful men and scintillating suspense." Foreword Magazine

"Part of what makes this thriller thrilling is that you sense there to be connections among all the various subplots; the anticipation of their coming together keeps the pages turning." Booklist

"This is one of the best thrillers I've read yet." New Mystery Reader

"A throwback to the era of Mike Hammer and Shell Scott, [Nick] Teffinger is old school all the way--and that means good retro fun." Booklist

This book "is creative and captivating. It features bold characters, witty dialogue, exotic locations, and non-stop action. The pacing is spot-on, a solid combination of intrigue, suspense, and eroticism. A first-rate thriller, this book is damnably hard to put down. It's a tremendous read." Foreword Reviews
