For some reason it's attributed under two different names, but this is definitely William J. Coughlin. Charley Sloan is defending a Norman Mailer type character....an author who's style of hard-nosed novels are starting to slip in popularity. He's accused of murdering his wife. Lots of satisfying twists and turns. Great page-turner. 3945. Proof of Intent, by William J. Coughlin and Walter Sorrells (read 17 Oct 2004) While Coughlin's name appears on the title page of this book it was published in 2002 and Coughlin died in 1992, so all Coughlin contributed to the book is the central character, Charley Sloan, a recovering alcoholic lawyer, who represents a guy accused of killing his wife. It is all pretty wild but it was fun to read, though what really happens in a courtroom bears little relation to this fiction. But it was easy good reading and I think is better legal fiction than Grisham, e.g., sometimes puts out. Zeige 4 von 4 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheCharley Sloan (5)
Charley Sloan isn't your typical lawyer. But then again, this isn't your typical case. When famous author and hometown hero Miles Dane is arrested for murdering his wife, it seems like an open-and-shut case. With no credible alibi, a mountain of physical evidence, and a motive of millions, it seems the prosecution's case is airtight. The police suspect that Dane had planned this crime many years ago--and made the mistake of writing it all down...in exact detail. Even Charley begins to question Dane's innocence. But Charley's own investigation gives him reason to believe that his client is being framed and that the real killer is using Dane's own bizarre imagination against him. But why isn't Dane speaking up? What secrets is he hiding? As the trial begins, it's still unclear where Miles Dane's wild imaginings stop and reality begins. Or whether he is committing the ultimate sacrifice in order to atone for something he did long ago. Only in the crucible of the final, fevered moments of trial will Charley finally put the pieces together and reveal the stunning truth... Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
