Trial by Ambush — Michael Monhollon

Out of the Office and On the Move
I slowed as a man in a security uniform came out, but he only stretched his back and swung his arms and watched me as I rolled past.

I was in, and the most disturbing thing so far was that the song "Secret Agent Man" kept playing in my head. This just wasn't the kind of thing lawyers did, not any of the ones I knew.

"Trial by Ambush," the first of the Robin Starling legal thrillers, is a tightly plotted thriller with a light tone and an athletic protagonist with a weak sense of personal modesty.
