About this ebook

Meet Lizzie Scott, federal prosecutor, whose obsession with protecting the weak is matched only by her hatred of bullies, especially when they wear a badge. Set in the United States Attorney's Office for the Central District of California, Deadly Force is the first novel in a trilogy about Lizzie Scott and her battles to tame the Inland Empire, the West's wild frontier. As timely as it is troubling, Deadly Force is the ultimate insider's look at a prosecutor's worst nightmare: having to go after one of the "good guys," a cop accused of having shot and unarmed suspect to death in cold blood. To get justice, Scott has to put more than her career on the line. Nobody is more deadly than a dirty cop out for revenge. As the nation continues to wrestle with a spate of police shootings, Deadly Force reveals the pressures, competing desires and ambitions brought to bear on lawyers, victims, witnesses, and the judges involved in such cases. Deadly Force is a classic Western for the 21st century and Lizzie Scott is a heroine you are not likely to ever forget.
