David P. Warren

Sinopsis

Steve Anders is the chief of staff for Senator Edward Buchanan. Senator Buchanan is a powerful and controversial figure surrounded by intrigue. The Senator is rumored to be in possession of classified information and of having affairs with a staffer. Steve is the Senator’s fixer and is on top of his game and well-respected throughout political circles. His brother Jack Anders runs a political consultancy firm representing the Senator.
 
Both brothers are at the top of their game, but everything is about to change. The Senator accuses Steve of stealing classified files and he is fired. That evening, the Senator is found murdered in his home. As detectives investigate the Senator’s murder, the clues start pointing in Steve’s direction.
 
Attorney Adam Lucas takes on Steve’s representation and does his best to establish reasonable doubt, while politically ambitious district attorney Robert Burnbaum seeks to launch his campaign for governor on the publicity that would come with a conviction of Steve Anders for murder.
 
As a jury is selected and the trial that is now national news begins, Steve faces the prospect of thirty years in prison. But nothing is as it seems and the unexpected testimony to be adduced at trial will shock the watching world.

It's a Battlefield

Graham Greene

An "adventurous . . . intelligent . . . ingenious" novel of crime and punishment in pre–World War II London (V. S. Pritchett). 
 
 
  
During a demonstration in Hyde Park, Communist bus driver Jim Drover acts on instinct to protect his wife by stabbing to death the policeman set to strike her down. Sentenced to hang—whether as a martyr, tool, or murderer—Drover accepts his lot, unaware that the ramifications for the crime, and the battle for his reprieve, are inflaming political unrest in an increasingly divided city. But Drover's single, impulsive act is also upending the lives of the people he loves and trusts. Caught in a quicksand of desperation, sexual betrayal, and guilt, they will not only play a part in Drover's fate, but they'll become agents—both unwitting and calculated—of their own fates as well. 
 
 
  
Turning the traditional narrative of the police procedural, domestic drama, and political thriller on its head, It's a Battlefield was described by Graham Greene himself as "a panoramic novel of London," one without heroes and villains, only "the injustice of man's justice."
