You will find yourself looking over your shoulders while reading this one. Pro Bono hits a lot of great notes and <b>elevates the financial thriller to new heights</b>

BookReporter

Charles Warren has dedicated his legal career to aiding people in financial straits. In his newest case, helping a beautiful young widow find the money missing from her late husband's investment accounts, Charlie recognizes a familiar scheme - one that echoes the con job that targeted his own widowed mother many years before, and that led him, as a teenager, to commit a crime of retribution that still weighs on his conscience.

Within hours of starting his investigation, he is followed, shot at and has his briefcase stolen. As Charlie continues to pursue answers, he quickly becomes too entangled in the web of fraud, betrayal and career criminals surrounding the theft to escape its deadly snare.

A nail-biting tale of conspiracy and pursuit from Thomas Perry, Pro Bono will have readers looking over their shoulders as constantly as they keep turning pages.
