Synopsis
California defense attorney Tony Lord returns to his hometown of Lake City, Ohio to defend his oldest friend, Sam, who is accused of murdering his 16-year-old lover. The case resonates with Tony because he faced similar accusations 28 years ago when his high school girlfriend was brutally murdered. Although Tony was never charged, the townspeople--Sam included--never fully believed in his innocence. Now Tony must prepare for an emotional trial that echoes the angst and accusations of years past.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "Gina Belfante murdered her husband at one fifteen on a Tuesday morning."
Industry Reviews
"What distinguishes Richard North Patterson from other best-selling authors of legal thrillers is that you become so emotionally involved with his characters that you can't bring yourself to give his books away. I routinely pass on my Scott Turows and John Grishams, but Patterson's last three books are line up neatly on on a shelf where his latest, the enthralling `Silent Witness,' will soon join them."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Margo Kaufman (01/26/1997)
"Despite the odds against him, Tony is every bit as tenacious in the courtroom as Patterson's earlier heroes; and readers who relish legal dogfights are in for hours of expertly turned-battle."
Barnes
"This is a mystery with muscle and if you have the fortitude to see it through, the workout will pay off."
