Pleading Guilty | Scott Turow
Mack Malloy, ex-cop, not-quite-ex-drunk, and partner-on-the-wane in one of the country's most high-powered law firms. A longtime ally of the wayward, Mack is on the trail of a colleague, his firm's star litigator, who has vanished with more than five million dollars of a client's money. Soon Mack will descend into the enthralling and ominous heart of a city on his final, desperate, and courageous crusade to reinvent himself from the depths of his own shattered soul . . . 'Turow's prose is powerful . . . a tough, vivid urban poetry, singing of ambition and corruption . . . an arresting performance' New York Times
