The Sam Acquillo Hamptons mysteries, book 8

Summary

"A routine visit to one of Sam Acquillo's job sites suddenly becomes anything but routine. The home's owner, Victor Bollings, is dead, the back of his head bashed in. One of Sam's closest friends in the cabinetry trade is quickly behind bars as the obvious suspect. For the cops, this is all standard operating procedure. But nothing about the case is standard in any way. When the chief of police tells Sam to stay the hell away, he really means it. But for Sam and defense attorney Jackie Swaitkowski, words like this are highly motivating. Sam and Jackie still feel a responsibility to defend the defenseless Colombian immigrant having no legal status, no political power, and no alibi who has the weight of the judicial system arrayed against him. This case shows that the Hamptons are not immune from struggles that inflame much of the world and reveals how fear of the unknown ignites prejudice and hate, overturning norms of decency and principle. For Sam and Jackie, it's also a lesson in the interconnectedness of evil."--, Provided by publisher
