JAMES PATTERSON – THE #1 LAWYER
Stafford Lee Penney is a small-town trial lawyer with a big-time reputation for winning every case he tries…until Penney himself is accused of murder.
In court, Penney knows…
- To never underestimate his opponent – or the jury.
- To never keep the judge waiting.
- To always dress for success in a pressed suit and polished shoes.
But none of that matters when he becomes the main suspect in a murder case. That’s when Penney tosses his winning playbook. It’s said that a lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client. But the # 1 lawyer must find a way to triumph.
