Breach of Promise Summary
|
In glitzy Lake Tahoe, couples break up every day. But few are as successful as Lindy and Mike Markov, who built a $200-million business together -- before Mike took up with a younger woman. Now he's claiming he doesn't owe Lindy a dime since they never married. Attorney Nina Reilly, struggling to make a living in her one-woman office and raise a young son alone, agrees to take Lindy's case. Nina knows winning is a long shot, even with a brilliant jury consultant and a palimony expert on her side. It's the kind of case -- full of passion and explosive secrets -- that could make a fortune for a young lawyer. Or drive someone to commit murder -- for love, money... or the right verdict.
"Lots of unexpected twists and turns... A savvy legal thriller." THE ORLANDO SENTINEL "O'Shaughnessy offers up a gripping courtroom drama, throws in pithy ethical and moral dilemmas and some surprising plot twists, and adds plenty of heart-stopping action, all packed into a riveting story that will hold readers -- especially fans of Grisham and Turow -- spellbound." "Perri O'Shaughnessy has created a series of legal thrillers that are an ingenious cross between the trial drama of Perry Mason and the octane action of the Nash Bridges television series. For over a decade, Kinsey Millhone, the creation of Sue Grafton, has been the reigning queen of West Coast mystery heroines, but there's a new girl on the block now. Move over Kinsey, Nina's come to town!" "O'Shaughnessy's courtroom strategies and her characters' idiosyncracies keep ringing true." "Breach of Promise offers the fun of following a high-stakes civil case that reveals a kind of courtroom intrigue we haven't seen since O. J. Simpson. The dialogue is clean and smart... the surprise twists wonderfully effective."... |

Broken hearts. Broken promises. Deadly consequences. In glitzy Lake Tahoe, couples break up every day. But few are as successful as Lindy and Mike Markov, who built a $200-million business together--before Mike took up with a younger woman. Now he's claiming he doesn't owe Lindy a dime since they never married. Attorney Nina Reilly, struggling to make a living in her one-woman office and raise a young son alone, agrees to take Lindy's case. Nina knows winning is a long shot, even with a brilliant jury consultant and a palimony expert on her side. It's the kind of case--full of passion and explosive secrets--that could make a fortune for a young lawyer. Or drive someone to commit murder--for love, money . . . or the right verdict. New York Times bestselling author Perri O'Shaughnessy has created a wonderfully unique and unpredictable character in Nina Reilly, a tough, tenderhearted attorney and single mother who has been hailed by critics as "one of the most interesting heroines in legal thrillers today" (the San Jose Mercury News). |
