When it’s a question of LAW versus ORDER the loser is JUSTICE. A year after 9/11, someone starts blowing up busy Los Angeles freeways, killing scores of men, women and children. The Chief of Police is certain Adam Primus, a community organizer he has grown to despise, is responsible. Former prosecutor Hank Madison, not convinced of that, takes Primus on as a client but then comes to realize that it is possible that neither he nor Primus will make it to a courtroom. Even if Primus survives very real threats to his life, under the new American Security Act, the Chief of Police threatens Hank with jail just for representing him. Hank realizes it’s no longer a matter of Law and Order. Now it’s LAW versus ORDER. Retired attorney and legal educator Sam Peters has crafted a legal thriller that not only addresses recent history but also reads like today’s headlines.

Sam Peters has retired from two long careers, first as a practicing attorney and then as a legal educator. He claims Fordham University School of Law as his alma mater and Alpha Phi Alpha as his fraternity, and he is active with local Southern California chapters of Toastmasters International. He is the proud father of sons, Robert, Samuel Jr., and Bernard and proud grandfather of Karina and Miles, each of whom he acknowledges for their intellect and humanity.
