Somebody is killing the sleazy lawyers of Los Angeles. Detective Joanna Davis matches wits with a serial killer who tailors each murder to a specific legal abuse. His victim profile: attorneys who use the law to achieve outrageous results. His murders: vehicles for poetic justice: a lawyer who won big bucks for careless coffeeservers is parboiled in his hot tub, another who got a food-poisoning caterer off dies of botulism.
