AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR Attorney Archie Krafter doesn't need anything else on his plate. He's happily tending to his lovely wife, Lora, talented musician and proprietor of a small repertory theater, while dodging his mafia in-laws. After many years representing high-profile clients, Archie is enjoying life away from the courtroom and penning "The Naked Lawyer" current events blog.Then NBA superstar Radon Jaalaba goes AWOL from a nationally televised game on Christmas and Archie is handed the case of his career. On the way to the arena Radon fled the scene of a drug-related shooting that killed Russell Marchetti, his driver and intimate friend, in addition to a responding police officer. Once America's hero on the basketball court, Radon is now on trial for his life, battling addiction and the weight of a career-threatening secret.This darkly humorous and suspenseful tale unfolds as Archie finds himself pulled deeper into Lora's notorious family. Lora's estranged father, Sal Dellacozzi, the aging "Rapini King" of Northern California calls on Lora to look after her younger brother, Dominic; he also wants Archie's legal help, having been unjustly accused in an international identity theft ring operating from inside a Dellacozzi Industries building. Along the harrowing ride to Radon and Dominic's days of reckoning, Archie and Lora's relationship is tested in ways for which they could never prepare."Raise Your Other Right Hand is funny, wry, and so thrilling you can't stop turning the pages." -Frances Dinkelspiel: Award-winning Author of Tangled Vines: Greed, Murder, Obsession, and an Arsonist in the Vineyards of California
