The Practicing Bar

by Stephen Lee

Overview

Kidd Bruton, 25, a young public defender, falls under the spell of Callie Jackson, twice his age but still a classic beauty. She has been a lawyer for as long as Bruton has been living. Under her tutelage, he is catapulted to success and is assigned to lead a last ditch effort to save a death row inmate. When all else fails, he and Callie try a desperate ploy to delay the execution. It pits them in a losing battle with their boss, the judicial establishment, and a star of the criminal defense bar. But Callie Jackson has an ace up her sleeve, and she plays it shrewdly. For Bruton, life and the law will never be the same.
