The Pardon and Beyond Suspicion

One of the most adept modern masters of thriller fiction, bestselling author James Grippando has won kudos from critics and readers alike for his ingenious and unpredictable suspense novels featuring Miami criminal lawyer Jack Swyteck. Now the first two Swyteck adventures have been combined in a single volume — two masterworks of double-cross, murderous intrigue, and pulse-pounding excitement that exhilarate with every unexpected twist and turn.

Defense attorney Jack Swyteck cannot forgive his father, the governor, for allowing Jack’s client to be executed for a murder he may not have committed. But a brilliant psychopath has targeted them both for revenge, so son and father must work together . . . or die.

Jack Swyteck falls victim to a beautiful con artist when he inadvertently helps an ex-girlfriend pull off a $1.5 million insurance scam. And when her dead body is discovered in his bathtub, Swyteck’s suddenly a homicide suspect and forced to run for his life.
