Choose options
A legal thriller in which a respected attorney's life collapses in a single night and his sanity becomes the courtroom's central exhibit. A defense story about mental illness, missing women and the limits of what a lawyer can know about his client.
Two Women Missing. One Mind on Trial.
Sanity is on trial as Thaddeus Murfee faces his toughest case.
Ansel Largent, a fierce Chicago attorney, seems to have it all: a successful career, a happy marriage and near-universal respect. Then everything falls apart in a single night, when the two women closest to him disappear.
Largent's life and character are put under intense scrutiny, and doubt spreads about his mental stability. Thaddeus takes on the defense in a trial that'll push him to his limits. He's determined to protect the innocent. First he has to work out whether his client is one of them.
The Mental Case is an entry in the Thaddeus Murfee legal thriller series, for readers who love insanity-defense trials, unreliable clients and courtroom psychology. Perfect for fans of John Grisham, Scott Turow and William Landay.
