A Conflict of Interest
The blurb:
Alex Miller is a criminal defense attorney and, at thirty-five: the youngest partner in one of the most powerful law firm in New York City. He's a man at the top of his game with the life he's always dreamed of, complete with a loving wife, who remains patient with his long hours and high-stakes cases, and a beautiful young daughter.
At his father's funeral, Alex meets Michael Ohlig -- a mysterious and nearly mythic figure in the Miller family history -- who presents Alex with a surprising request: to represent him in a high-profile criminal investigation. . .an alleged brokerage scam that has lost hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. Wealthy beyond words, Ohlig insists he's done nothing wrong, and Alex who's experienced enough to know that clients always lie, uncharacteristically believes him.
But as the facts come out, shocking secrets are revealed that threaten everything Alex believes in -- about the law, his family, and himself. But his desperate need for the truth propels Alex to unscrupulous depths, and to confront a past defined by deception and a future in jeopardy. . . with the realization that one false step could destroy everything Alex holds dear.
