"Bad Blood" by Linda Fairstein Length: 5 hours and 15 min. ISBN: 0-7435-5595-3 New York Times Best Seller Listen to an excerpt with: Windows Media Player Real Player |
Assistant D.A. Alexandra Cooper is deeply involved in a complicated, high-profile homicide case against defendant Brendan Quillian, a prominent young businessman who is charged with the strangulation of his beautiful young wife. His conviction is not a certainty: Quillian was conveniently out of town on the day of the killing, and his defense attorney seems to be one step ahead of Cooper’s effort to prove Quillian paid a hit man to commit the crime.
Halfway through the trial, a major catastrophe alters the course of Cooper’s case. A cataclysmic explosion rips through New York City’s Water Tunnel #3, a spectacular feat of modern engineering that will be completed years in the future. Was the blast caused by terrorism? Political retribution? Or was it merely an accident? Cooper is quickly drawn into the tragedy when she discovers a strange connection linking Brendan Quillian to the tunnel workers killed in the explosion.
Told with Linda Fairstein’s trademark blend of brilliant detective work, cutting-edge forensics, and electrifying courtroom drama, Bad Blood is packed with the twists and turns that never fail to thrill her legion of devoted fans.
