About The Widow on the Ledge An Evan Wonder Legal Thriller
What is the shocking secret of The Widow on the Ledge? When one of America's most famous scholars burns to death in his sleep, the police suspect murder and arrest his beautiful young wife, Rachel Pope. With the evidence mounting against her, the case against Rachel seems unstoppable-until Evan Wonder, the law professor and chess master who was once the dazzling defender known as The Prince of Darkness, shocks the legal community by coming out of retirement to represent her. While Evan battles to save Rachel's life, powerful forces swirl around them, conspiring to destroy the lawyer and threatening to put his client on death row. Can Rachel Pope possibly be innocent in spite of the overwhelming evidence that she is a cold-blooded killer? Can Evan Wonder overcome tremendous odds to protect himself and prevent Rachel's execution? The Widow on the Ledge is a legal thriller that could only have been written by a master of the courtroom, filled with twists and turns that will keep even the sharpest reader guessing until the very last page.
