In this pulse-pounding thriller from acclaimed author R.J. Jagger, a beautiful young lawyer is hired by a colleague to find out if one of his clients is trying to kill him. (384 pages, mass-market edition)
This was a best-selling book when it was originally published in 2007 under a different name. It has been updated and is now available again after a long hiatus. This was the 2nd book ever written by R.J. Jagger, and many say still one of his best, even to this day.
The Nick Teffinger thrillers are all self-contained within their own four corners and can be read in any order.
For over a decade, R.J. Jagger's thrillers have been widely acclaimed by the most established and reputable book review organizations in the publishing industry, including Library JournaL, Kirkus Reviews, Booklist and Foreword Reviews:
"A terrifying, gripping cross between James Patterson and John Grisham. Jagger has created a truly killer thriller." J.A. Konrath
"As engaging as the debut [Witness Chase], this exciting blend of police procedural and legal thriller recalls the early works of Scott Turow and Lisa Scottoline." Library Journal
"The well-crafted storyline makes this a worthwhile read. This novel has a riveting plot." Kirkus Reviews
"Verdict: The pacing is relentless in this debut, a hard-boiled novel with a shocking ending. The supershort chapters will please those who enjoy a James Patterson--style page-turner" Library Journal
A "clever and engrossing mystery tale involving gorgeous women, lustful men and scintillating suspense." Foreword Magazine
"Part of what makes this thriller thrilling is that you sense there to be connections among all the various subplots; the anticipation of their coming together keeps the pages turning." Booklist
"This is one of the best thrillers I've read yet." New Mystery Reader
"A throwback to the era of Mike Hammer and Shell Scott, [Nick] Teffinger is old school all the way--and that means good retro fun." Booklist
This book "is creative and captivating. It features bold characters, witty dialogue, exotic locations, and non-stop action. The pacing is spot-on, a solid combination of intrigue, suspense, and eroticism. A first-rate thriller, this book is damnably hard to put down. It's a tremendous read." Foreword Reviews
Formerly a longstanding trial attorney before taking the big leap and devoting his full time attention to writing, RJ Jagger (that's a penname, by the way) is the author of over twenty hard-edged mystery and suspense thrillers. In addition to his own books, Jagger also ghostwrites for a well-known, bestselling author. He is a member of the International Thriller Writers as well as Mystery Writers of America.
Thanks to the many wonderful readers, booksellers, editors, publishers, agents, audio producers, book reviewers, authors, groups (including International Thriller Writers and Mystery Writers of America), proofreaders and other kind-hearted souls who amplified my efforts and who encouraged me with positive vibes over the years. Without you this book would have never happened.
