| Plot Summary of In Her Defense |
"The protagonist is a lawyer taking on board a seemingly lost case, where the accused is a beautiful woman who admits to him she is guilty! However, there are several gaps and loose ends in the facts, and a much more complicated scenario is slowly revealed, involving espionnage and the FBI. The protagonists's inner conflict about who he wants to be, and where his priorities are are also important themes in the book."
Anthie Zachariadou, Resident Scholar
