{"product_id":"legal-briefs-short-stories-by-todays-best-thriller-writers","title":"Legal Briefs: Short Stories by Today's Best Thriller Writers","description":"William Bernhardt, author of seven bestselling novels featuring attorney Ben Kincaid, asked ten of his fellow lawyer\/authors to contribute their most fiendishly clever short pieces for this anthology, and told them their imaginations were their only guides. The result is Legal Briefs, a smorgasbord of stories boasting a wonderful variety of themes and styles. From John Grisham's exploration of a doctor's guilt in \"The Birthday\" to Richard North Patterson's story of a lawyer's loyalty to his mentor in \"The Client,\" to Grif Stockley's tale of a divorce lawyer who learns the hard way that things are not always what they seem, these pieces showcase the extraordinary depth and breadth of talent among the new breed of legal thriller writers.\n\nSome of these stories feature twisting and inventive plots; some illuminate the moral dilemmas and psychological complexities faced by the modern-day lawyer; some are good, old-fashioned yarns. But for all their diversity of approaches and characters, these writers understand that the courtrooms and law firms from which they came offer the raw material for the most dramatic, suspenseful stories you can read.\n\nLegal Briefs will be a delight for fans of all these bestselling authors, and a splendid introduction to their talents for readers new to the genre.\n\nAuthor proceeds from the sale of this book are being donated to the Children's Defense Fund.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0385491387\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0385491387.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:William Bernhardt\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
