Special Circumstances / Incriminating Evidence


Sheldon Siegel - 2015
    Get your "Mike Daley" double dose of legal thrillers with this special set including the first two novels in the series: SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES and INCRMINATING EVIDENCE. SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES Meet Mike Daley. Ex-priest. Ex–public defender. Ex-husband. And as of yesterday, ex-partner in one of San Francisco's most prominent law firms. Today he's out on his own, setting up practice on the wrong side of town. Then his best friend and former colleague is charged with a brutal double murder, and Daley is instantly catapulted into a high-profile investigation involving the prestigious law firm that just booted him. So begins SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES, the first novel in Sheldon Siegel's critically acclaimed legal thriller series featuring Mike Daley and his law partner/ex-wife Rosie Fernandez. As he prepares his case, Daley uncovers the firm's dirtiest secrets. It doesn't take long for him to discover that in this trial, ambition, friendship, greed, and long-standing grudges will play just as important a role as truth and justice. Brilliantly paced, crackling with energy and suspense, Special Circumstances reminds us why we love to hate lawyers — but can't get enough of courtroom drama when it's done this well. INCRIMINATING EVIDENCE Mike & Rosie have a new challenge--and it’s a high-profile zinger: a case they don't think they can win for a client they can’t stand. It starts with a phone call Mike Daley never expected to get, from District Attorney Prentice Marshall Gates III, San Francisco’s chief law enforcement officer and front-runner candidate for California attorney general. Friends they’re not, but Gates needs Daley now--badly. He’s just been arrested. A couple of hours earlier he woke up in his hotel room and found the dead body of a young male prostitute in the bed. Prosecutors are already talking the death penalty, and there’s nothing in the mounting evidence to convince Daley and his partner--and ex-wife--Rosie of Gates’s innocence. But even if he’s lying, it’s their job to defend him. Sure enough, the deeper Mike and Rosie dig, the seamier their findings. From a shady Internet entrepreneur who trades flesh for cash to a prominent businessman who uses muscle to keep his enterprise prospering, Mike and Rosie chase down leads that take them from the depths of the Mission District, where drugs and bodies are always for sale, to the gated mansions of Pacific Heights, frantically trying to piece together the shocking truth of what actually happened, even as the trial itself is under way.
