Jane Smith is running out of time . . . Her repeat client, Rob Jacobson, is the unluckiest of the unlucky. No sooner is he accused of killing a family of three in the Hamptons than a second family is gunned down. He says he's being set up - again. Despite the odds, Jane believes him. Now she must mount the most complex investigation of her career. But she's facing her own battle too. A terminal medical condition. The defence may never rest. ___________________________________________PRAISE FOR THE JANE SMITH THRILLERS'The phenomenal Patterson, one of the great storytellers of our time, does not often produce a new character, but he does here to stunning effect' Daily Mail'A gutsy heroine.
