Laws Relating to Sex Morality in New York City (1916)

A brutal crime leaves one woman clinging to life, her unborn child dead, and a peaceful Ohio Valley community crying for vengeance. Lori Franks, beautiful and ruthless, will stop at nothing in her relentless pursuit of a conviction. While seeking to execute a handicapped man accused of killing an unborn baby, her own dark past rages back to haunt her again. Defense attorney Danial Solomon locks horns with Franks in two cases. His crusade for the truth leads him on a collision course with the abortion laws of the state while driving him ever deeper into a labyrinth of conspiracy and corruption. The book races from the life-and-death decisions of the operating room to the tension-packed fireworks of a murder trial - a unique mix of legal intrigue and page-turning suspense that catapulted John Grisham to the Bestseller list. This story will leave you exhilarated and shaken, but above all, it will make you think.
