She has maintained a spotless reputation--until now. Three male police officers have accused her of soliciting sex in exchange for promotions to higher ranks. With few people left who she can trust\, Chief Gomez turns to an old friend\, Rik Dudek\, to act as her attorney in the federal grand jury investigation\, insisting to Rik that the accusations against her are part of an ugly smear campaign designed to destroy her career and empower her enemies--both outside the police force and within.\n\n\n\nAssisting Rik on the case is Clarice "Pinky" Granum\, who spent most of her youth experimenting with an impressive array of drugs and failing out of various professions\, including the police academy. Guided by her gut instinct and razor-sharp investigative skills\, Pinky dives headfirst into a twisted scandal that will draw her into the deepest recesses of the city's criminal networks\, as well as the human mind. But she will need every scrap of tenacity and courage to unravel the dark secrets those closest to her are determined to keep hidden.\n\n\n\nMore About the Author: Scott Turow is the author of many bestselling works of fiction\, including The Last Trial\, Testimony\, Identical\, Innocent\, Presumed Innocent\, and The Burden of Proof\, and two nonfiction books\, including One L\, about his experience as a law student.
