Wilson "Carl" Carlisle needs to deal enough drugs to pay-off a huge back tax bill. Dutch Immigration, The DEA, an angry Russian, a gang of Turks, The Hells Angels, and even the IRS are determined that he not succeed. He had been a small time dealer when he played tennis at LSU, and he had worked his way through U Miami Law as an errand boy for criminal lawyers, bondsmen, and drug traffickers. Would these experiences give him enough of an edge to survive the array of criminals and law enforcement aligned against him? "Confessions Of a Trial Lawyer" is actually two books in one, meant to be read together. But they can be read separately as two complete stories. "Opening Statement" and "Closing Argument." As the titles imply, the second is more confronational. They can be read in any order. Read two books for the price of one.
