Con-artist-turned-lawyer Eddie Flynn vowed never to step foot in a courtroom again after a disastrous case. But now he doesn't have a choice. The head of the Russian mob in New York City, on trial for murder, has kidnapped Eddie's ten-year-old daughter: Eddie has to take this case whether he likes it or not. The mobsters have given up on convincing a jury, so they want Eddie to smuggle a bomb into the courtroom to take out the prosecution's untouchable star witness. Luckily, Eddie still has his old skills and some old pals, and even under the intense scrutiny of his client, the judge, and the FBI, he thinks he might just be able to win this case--and save his daughter and himself. Using his razor-sharp wit and every con, bluff, grift, and trick in the book, Eddie has only forty-eight hours to defend an impossible case. And if he loses, he loses everything.
