8vo., 247pp. Sharp First Edition. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no wear save perhaps a tiny, gentle bump to the crown. Equally attractive unclipped dust-jacket, ($24.95), is fresh and bright with no chipping, creases, toning or tears. Warmly inscribed, signed and dated by the author on the half- title page to long-time New York City bookseller Jeff Bergman who had shops on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. A beautiful collectable copy of the author's surprisingly uncommon first book.

--Burl Barer, Edgar Award-winning author of Body Count and Murder in the Family
A killer with a book... A lawyer pushed too far... Freddy Builder kills Mindi Quintana and is writing the book about their relationship everybody wants--it's a lying rewrite of her life and of their miserably thin involvement. Excerpts appearing to acclaim, a televised trial is in the offing, and a new celebrity killer takes the stage--the iconic poet-murderer, a jailhouse literary sensation. Freddy's straight arrow lawyer plays his sworn role as advocate; but as Freddy builds his fame with the bones of his victim, he finds himself dreaming of justice. And of comeuppance. For a killer with a book. For fame through the backdoor of murder.

Review
...It's a lot like watching an episode of NBC's The Office, except it's in reading form...I found the book's plot to be engrossing; if a bit scary, considering the parallel to many real life "celebrity killers" today. --http://truecrimebookreviews.com/2010/03/killing-mindi-quintana-jeffrey-cohen/
The Killing of Mindi Quintana is attorney Jeffrey A. Cohen's first novel, and not surprisingly, it's a legal thriller - sort of. But it's also a psychological thriller and a commentary on society and the justice system. --Rough Edges
Cohen is a hot shot Philly lawyer turned high tech entrepreneur. Success upon success has crowned his efforts, & now he's reinvented himself as a best-selling mystery author. His first book is a clever legal thriller. --Burl Barer
This book is captivating and to me each chapter felt almost like another story building on another. --Life of a Busy Wife
