SUPREME JUSTICE: A NOVEL OF SUSPENSE
Book ID/图书代码： 06840010B34311
English Summary/英文概要： New York Times Bestselling author Phillip Margolin’s SUPREME JUSTICE opens with a bang during an attempted one-man mutiny on Captain John Finley’s THE CHINA SEA, a vessel packed with the kind of lucrative goods that criminals would kill for—and the ship captain would do anything to keep a secret. Finley is the sole member of his crew to survive the attack and escapes with contraband in tow--too bad he doesn’t notice the car trailing him as he flees the scene of the crime.
Through the winding course of Margolin’s newest thriller, following the “.38 Special hot” EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE (USA Today) and FUGITIVE (“entertaining . . . a plot set on full boil”-- Publishers Weekly), this high-octane opening becomes linked with a controversy that envelopes the highest court of law in the land.
The Supreme Court is split over a case that weighs the validity of protecting state secrets against the rights of a convicted citizen on death row. An attempted assassination of a Supreme Court Justice Felicia Moss ensues. The president, blackmailed by a prominent attorney, plants a corrupt judge on the bench in an attempt to sway the decision. And Brad Miller, law clerk to Justice Moss, finds himself caught in the crosshairs of a conspiracy of murder and drug smuggling that has compromised the highest levels of two of the three branches of the federal government.
