Klappentext
'The phenomenal Patterson, one of the great storytellers of our time, does not often produce a new character, but he does here to stunning effect' Daily Mail'A gutsy heroine. A ticking clock. A breathless pace. Wow! This one had me reeling' JANE CORRY
'Compelling' Crime Monthly
_____________________
Her name is Jane Smith. But to friends and foes, she's Jane Effing Smith.
Why? Because she's the best criminal defence attorney in the Hamptons - the elite world of New York's rich and infamous. Because she's as good an investigator as she is a lawyer. Because she's tough. She's strong.
As Jane is preparing to defend a high-profile client accused of a triple homicide, she's also hired to revive a cold case - a cluster of unsolved murders.
Then another bombshell lands. A devastating medical diagnosis. Terminal. She's got a year to live.
But for now, she has a trial to win. Unless one of her many enemies kills her first.

James Patterson wuchs in Newburgh, New York, auf, studierte englische Literatur am Manhattan College und an der Vanderbilt University. Während seines Studiums, das er mit Auszeichnung abschloss, jobbte er in einer psychiatrischen Klinik. Danach war Patterson lange Zeit Chef einer großen New Yorker Werbeagentur. Nebenher begann er mit dem Schreiben von Kriminalromanen und das mit großem Erfolg. Denn bereits für seinen Debütroman erhielt er den begehrten Edgar Allan Poe Award, Amerikas wichtigsten Krimipreis. Mittlerweile gilt James Patterson als der Mann, der nur Bestseller schreibt: In den letzten Jahren standen 63 seiner Bücher auf der New York Times Hardcover-Bestsellerliste. Seine Romane wurden bisher in 38 Sprachen übersetzt und erreichten weltweit eine Gesamtauflage von über 260 Millionen Exemplaren. James Patterson lebt heute mit seiner Familie in Palm Beach, Florida.
