0345371070 From Publishers Weekly Lawyer Laura Di Palma is forced out of her prestigious firm and linked to several suspicious deaths after her search for her ailing, missing lover causes her to neglect a client. "The author's unexpected coda leaves a sobering aftertaste, suggesting what can happen to those engaged in the 'good fight,' " said PW. Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc. Book Description Attorney Laura Di Palma is in complete control of her high-profile life -- she's about to become a partner, signed lithographs decorate the walls of her spectacular San Francisco apartment, and her Mercedes is paid for. But control turns to utter chaos when her sick lover, Hal, disappears from his hospital bed without a word. Then Sandy, the detective she works with (and her former lover), begins pressuring her for a second chance. At work, she has a radical client who's accused of murdering an FBI agent. It's too much to handle, but Laura has no choice. Frantically searching for Hal, Laura also attempts to build her client's controversial defense. Meanwhile, she must keep Sandy at a distance even as she needs his help. When a second man is murdered, Laura's carefully tailored life begins to unravel before her eyes . . . .
