The Senator's Murder

David P. Warren

Sinossi

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.
