The Court

By William J Coughlin

Nine Supreme Court judges will soon decide four history-making cases. 

Eight of them will split along party lines four to four. The ninth judge, holding the swing vote, will tip the scales of justice. He’s a good man, a fine man, and, unknown to nearly everyone, a dying man-barely kept alive by machines in a very private hospital. High-powered Washington attorney Jerry Green is one of the privileged few who discovers American justice rides on the rise and fall of a respirator. Now he’s been called by the President himself to do something about it. It’s a hunt for truth that will arouse his darkest suspicions, force him to make a shocking choice, and save the legitimacy of American justice. Or shatter it forever…

The Court examines the complexity of the law in exhilarating fashion. Fans of John Grisham will love William J. Coughlin’s stunning legal thriller!
