In the new thriller from New York Times bestselling author Lisa
Scottoline, Mary DiNunzio's ruthless nemesis Nick Machiavelli is
back...with a vengeance.
When three men announce that
they are suing the Rosato & DiNunzio law firm for reverse sex
discrimination--claiming that they were not hired because they were
men--Mary DiNunzio and Bennie Rosato are outraged. To make matters
worse, their one male employee, John Foxman, intends to resign, claiming
that there is some truth to this case.
The plaintiffs' lawyer
is Nick Machiavelli, who has already lost to Mary once and is now back
with a vengeance --determined not to not only win, but destroy the firm.
It soon becomes clear that Machiavelli will do anything in his power to
achieve his end...even after the case turns deadly. The stakes have
never been higher for Mary and her associates as they try to keep
Machiavelli at bay, solve a murder, and save the law firm they love...or
they could lose everything they've worked for. Told with Scottoline's
trademark gift for twists, turns, heart, and humanity, this latest
thriller asks the question: Is it better to be loved, or feared...
Feared,
the sixth entry in the acclaimed Rosato & DiNunzio series, expertly
explores what happens when we are tempted to give in to our own inner
darkness.
