Tom McInnes investigates the suspicious death of a juror and becomes embroiled in a conspiracy of greed and jury tampering that reaches to the state's highest courts. When a young woman asks Tom to investigate her mother's death in a small-town hospital, his first instinct is to refuse the case. But as the woman reveals the suspicious circumstances of a simple food poisoning turned deadly, he reluctantly finds himself intrigued. As he and his investigator, Joey, delve into the mother's death, an attempt is made on Tom's life, the state bar threatens disbarment and he finds himself accused of murdering a fellow lawyer. With the help of a beautiful Asian-American psychologist turned jury expert, his search for the truth uncovers a conspiracy of legal chicanery beginning at the highest levels of government and backed up by cold-blooded killers. Filled with unexpected reversals and treachery, A Clean Kill will keep even the most jaded mystery-reader guessing.
