In a dazzling display of courtroom bravado, Seth "Cowboy" Cameron wins a ticket to San Francisco's Montgomery Street, home of the prestigious firm of Miller and McGrath. But he soon becomes a pawn in a power struggle between the firm's senior partners, led by Brahmin superstar Anthony Treadwell, and the juniors, whom Treadwell labels the "Young Turkeys." Surviving on adrenaline and unkept promises, Seth is primed to beat Treadwell at his own game. Then Treadwell sends him Elena Barton. The seductive widow of an Air Force pilot killed in the crash of a stealth bomber, she's determined to sue the government contractor—ConSpace—to prove the plane was defective and erase the stigma of pilot error. To complicate matters, her father, a U.S. Senator and former Miller and McGrath senior partner, chairs the subcommittee that approved ConSpace. Committed to the firm's questionable strategies and increasingly attracted to his client, Seth is stunned when a shocking career disaster shatters his dream and lands him in a seedy law office on Mission Street. Allyn Friedlander, Seth's new boss, hides her generous heart beneath a veneer of industrial-strength cigars and caffeine. But she believes in him and backs him when Elena reappears, a dark angel offering redemption...or a new way to crash and burn. "John
Martel writes as forcefully as his powerful characters act. Conflicts
of Interest surges forward as irresistibly as a tidal wave. Packed
with action and intrigue." "John
Martel is one of the best." "A
mix of legal action, government secrets, high-stakes dealings, and streetwise
romance makes this [an] exciting thriller." Buy Conflicts of Interest at your favorite neighborhood bookstore or online from: |
