Description
From New York Times bestselling author John Lescroart, a riveting new novel of legal suspense featuring Dismas Hardy and his daughter, Rebecca, now grown up and an associate in Hardys law firm.Late one night, a teenage African American foster child named Tanya Morgan plummets to her death from the overpass above San Franciscos Stockton tunnel. But did she fall...or was she pushed?Rushing to produce a convictable suspect in the glare of the media spotlight, homicide inspectors focus their attention on a naïve young man named Greg Treadway. Greg is a middle school teacher and he volunteers as a Special Advocate for foster children. At first, the only thing connecting him to Tanyas death is the fact that they shared a meal earlier that night. But soon enough, elements of that story seem to fall apart...and Hardys daughter, Rebecca, finds herself drawn into the young mans defense.By the time Gregs murder trial gets underway, Dismas and Rebecca have unearthed several other theories about the crime: a missing stepfather whod sexually assaulted her; a roommate who ran a call girl service; a psychologically unstable birth mother; and a mysterious homeless man who may have had dealings with Tanya. Or Greg Treadway himself, who is perhaps not all that he first appeared. But how will they get these theories in front of a jury? And if they can, what price will they have to pay?With signature suspense and intricate plotting, The Fall puts Dismas Hardy and his only daughter in the middle of one of John Lescroarts most complex and thrilling cases yet.,Amazon.com
