Produktbeschreibung

"GRIPPING . . . [Stockley] writes with wit, irony, and a good lawyer's intimate understanding of the daily life of the defense bar and the dynamics of trial. Illegal Motion reads like a thriller and reverberates like the news." *Entertainment Weekly When small-time lawyer Gideon Page agrees to defend Dade Cunningham against charges of rape, he doesn't realize what he's taken on. Dade, a star wide receiver for the University of Arkansas, is poor and black; his accuser, a pretty co-ed, is wealthy and white. And Gideon is suddenly at the center of a racially and sexually charged case that will earn him enemies on campus and off. Before he even gets to trial, he'll be dodging the media and the wrath of feminists, contending with naked bigotry and university politics, dealing with the divided loyalties of his daughter, Sarah, and facing long hidden secrets from the past that will put the truth *and his own conscience *on trial. . . . "[The] richness of place and character gives punch to the climactic courtroom scene . . . Illegal Motion will give courtroom drama fans a pleasantly tense few hours." *San Jose Mercury News "STOCKLEY KNOWS HIS STUFF." *Detroit Free Press
