Final Jeopardy

Prosecutor Linda Fairstein is the only person who could write this incendiary, highly acclaimed thriller. Although John Grisham and Patricia Cornwall are familiar with the morgue and the courtroom, respectively, none are as familiar with the inner workings of the D.A.'s office as Linda Fairstein, who led the Manhattan Sex Crimes Unit for twenty years. Now that universe is wonderfully brought to life in a masterful first book full of intense suspense, profound insight, and startling reality.

One morning, top sex crimes prosecutor in Manhattan Alexandra Cooper wakes up to shocking news: a tabloid headline declaring her own violent murder. The Hollywood actress Isabella Lascar, who took sanctuary in Alex's Martha's Vineyard resort, was the real victim, however. Was Isabella the victim of a stalker, or was she just misidentified as Alex and happened to be in the wrong location at the wrong time? in a probe that meanders from the Upper East Side's posh salons to the back streets of lower Manhattan. Alex is aware that her time is running out and she is in ultimate danger. Before the murderer reaches her, she has to enter his or her mind.
