Omtale The street lawyer
Michael Brock is billing the hours, making the money, rushing relentlessy to the top of Drake & Sweeney, a giant D.C law firm. One step away from partnership, Michael has it all. Then, in an instant, it all comes undone.
A homeless man takes nine lawers hostage in the firm`s plush offices. When it is all over, the man`s blood is splattered on Michael` s face . and suddenly Michael is willing to do the unthinkable. Rediscovering a conscience he lost long ago, Michael is leaving the big time for the streets where his attacker once lived . and where society`s powerless need an advocate for justice.
But there`s one break Michael can`t make : from a secret that has floated up from the dephts of Drake & Sweeny, from a confidential file that is now in Michaels hands, and from a conspiracy that has already taken lives. Now Michael`s former partners are about to become his bitter enemies. Because to them, Michael Brock is the most dangerous man on the streets.
