interesting romantic police procedural legal thriller

Perhaps it is the unsolved murder of her father sixteen years ago or that the case seems so eerily similar, but Chicago attorney Lisa Jensen works diligently on trying to clear her client wealthy socialite Glory Witherington of a murder charge. However, her client and husband seem indifferent to the case offering little to help Lisa mount a defense especially against what she believes the prosecution will use to argue a crime of passion since Glory was sleeping with the victim. Lisa cannot provide HER BEST DEFENSE as things stand and worries that the parallels are affecting her wisdom. She asks homicide detective Kurt Sandoval to dig deeper into the current homicide and the death of her dad. When Kurt perceives a threat to Lisa, he decides to find the link assuming that will lead to a diabolically clever killer trying to harm the woman he loves. HER BEST DEFENSE is an interesting romantic police procedural legal thriller in which the elements from the three sub-genres blend together into a tense thriller. The action-packed story line never slows down as Lisa sees how much the Witherington case matches that of her late father. Kurt is a wonderful hero risking his career and later his life out of a sense of justice as much as for his love for Lisa. Suspense readers will want to follow the exploits of the attorney-sleuth team-up trying to solve two cases that are almost two decades apart while also falling in love. Harriet Klausner
