The Death of Albert Shipley
Gary Coffin
Orson Carver doesn’t usually work for men like Ezra Bokal; rich and powerful, and the owner of Westview Property Development. When Bokal is charged with killing Albert Shipley, his lawyer, an old friend of Carver’s, convinces Carver to take the case.
The evidence against Bokal is airtight. Carver and his sharp-tongued partner, Beryl Adams, wonder why they’re working for a man who doesn’t deserve it.As they dig deeper, they discover a woman who swore she’d never sell her condo to Westview, then she did, and now she’s missing. Beryl goes to Florida to find her, but instead finds that Westview’s reach is long, and its methods ruthless. The laws that govern us are clear; guilty, or not-guilty. But Carver knows that guilt doesn’t always look like a criminal, and innocence isn’t always worth saving.
With two bodies and no proof, Carver must make a deal with the devil to draw the killer out. And in the process put his own life at risk.
