"A courtroom thriller, a mean streets thriller, a Florida cracker thriller, a gritty prison thriller, and an Everyman study of good and evil all rolled into one. And every part of it is terrific. What a wonderful piece of storytelling!"-- Donald Westlake, The New York Times
The startling novel of a district attorney who, twelve years after sending a convicted murderer to Death Row, returns to the same courtroom to try to save that same man's life. A masterly tale of murder, guilt, and infidelity, set in Florida and featuring the rarest of heroes - a criminal lawyer with a conscience.
Can Ted Jaffe represent a murderer he once prosecuted? The legal establishment insists he can't. FINAL ARGUMENT is about Jaffe's war -- at the risk of his career, his marriage, and his personal safety - to free a man he believes he has grievously wronged. The London Daily Express hailed it as "a spellbinding courtroom drama."
"Only a handful of American authors have ever been able to transform murder and infidelity into poetry, and Irving is one of those writers ... Not to be missed, this book has best-seller stamped on every page."-- Donald Porter, Mystery News
"Two cliffhanger trials, a moral crisis, violence, love ... it's all here." -- Mail on Sunday (London)
