Synopsis

"BUM RAP" IS A NUMBER ONE AMAZON BESTSELLER

A mysterious bar-girl goes missing from a South Beach club...
A Russian gangster is shot dead...
And Steve Solomon holds the smoking gun.


Can Lassiter get Solomon off the hook?

BUM RAP is the first novel to bring together Jake Lassiter with squabbling Miami lawyers Steve Solomon and Victoria Lord. In a tale filled with twists and turns, Lassiter digs deep into the underbelly of glitzy South Beach to defend a client who's not necessarily telling him the truth.

Who reads the Lassiter series? Fans of John Grisham, Harlan Coben, Sue Grafton, Scott Pratt, Carl Hiaasen, and Lisa Scottoline love the crackling courtroom drama, breathtaking suspense, intimate personal stories, and wicked humor, too.

"The pages fly by and the laughs keep coming in this irresistible South Florida romp. A delicious mix of thriller and comic crime novel." - Booklist (starred review)
