Synopsis
Praise for The Prosecution 'Buffa's spare observation, crackling dialogue and shadowy circle of criminals, lawyers and lovers keep you entwined.' -Who Weekly For Joseph Antonelli, this case was a ticket out of his self-imposed isolation and back into the courtroom. As well as a favour for his old friend Judge Horace Woolner, it was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to serve as a special prosecutor in a case against Marshall Goodwin, the chief deputy district attorney accused of having his former wife murdered. But Antonelli may be taking on more than he can handle. The Goodwin case renews his appetite for the practice of law and, although he is determined to do the right thing, there are many shades of right and wrong. And Antonelli may be getting in over his head when he finds himself propelled into the midst of the gruesome murder of an elusive patron of the arts from a prominent Portland family. Judge Horace Woolner's wife, Alma, stands accused of the crime. With justice and love on the line, the stakes couldn't be higher. With The Prosecution, D.W. Buffa delivers on the promise of The Defense, taking us into the dark recesses of our courtrooms and our souls, where there are never any easy answers.
