Short Squeeze
ByPublisher Description
Meet Jackie Swaitkowski, a smart-aleck attorney whose legal turf is supposed to be the buzzing Hamptons real-estate market. But when a new client turns up dead, things take a sudden and decidedly dangerous turn. In a client's pocket is an envelope that contains a shocking piece of evidence that suggests that the death was anything but an accident. Jackie has bigger fish to fry—like her old flame Harry's surprise return to town—until a late-night car chase changes her priorities. Now she has every reason to believe that the next name on the killer's list is her own.
