Her Deadly Game by Robert Dugoni

Attorney Keera Duggan has joined Patrick Duggan and Associates (her family's criminal defense firm) after being demoted at the King County Prosecuting Attorney's office. Her father, Patsy, the head of the firm, is a legendary local attorney, but is unreliable because of his alcoholism. When Vincent LaRussa's wife Anne is found murdered, LaRussa--knowing that he will be the primary suspect in the crime--hires Duggan and Associates. Keera takes the lead on the case and finds herself heading the defense team when LaRussa is arrested and put on trial. Will Keera be able to get a verdict of not guilty for her client? In Her Deadly Game, veteran author Dugoni produces a great read--a relatable main character, a fascinating puzzle of how the victim died and questions about the defendant himself--what happens if LaRussa is really guilty, but Keera gets him off?
