Maggie Dayton

"Oil Heir Kills Brother, Lover With Bomb On Yacht!!" No respectable firm will touch the case, but Alexander Whitney and his law students sign up on a win-or-no-fee basis and the evidence suggests their client is innocent, duped by the lovely and mysterious Maggie Dayton. But to what end? Devastated by her death in the apparent accident, Alex's client wants to plead guilty and the NYC press and D. A. have a field day with the "Mad Bomber." Alex builds a scenario that dispels the circumstantial evidence, yet when his client takes the stand he delivers a whole new story that sends Alex and the jury into a tailspin. Struggling to understand his client's motives, Alex gambles on a bold legal maneuver, then receives the greatest shock of his life from his unpredictable client. And then another. And another!!
