Runaway Justice

Attorney David Adams is the last hope for an adolescent runaway being targeted by an assassin and sought by the FBI in a breath-catching novel by the Amazon Charts bestselling author of An Unequal Defense . Having abandoned corporate law, David Adams is now the voice of justice for the city of Austin's vulnerable outcasts. His new client is Parker Barnes, a trembling twelve-year-old runaway and foster-care poster boy arrested for petty theft. Dealt a rough hand in life, he reminds David of his own childhood. This should be a simple, if heartbreakingly familiar, case. Until the FBI muscles in. Parker is also a suspect in the murder of a federal witness. No matter how desperate Parker's denial, David fears there's so much more to the kid's hard-luck story than he's letting on. Especially when a hit man sends the boy running to the only safe place he knows: the streets. With both the feds and a killer on Parker's trail, the hunt is on. Teaming up with a pro bono investigator and utilizing his reliable band of street-savvy friends, David must find Parker first if he's to save the boy from an undeserved fate. And maybe even save himself.
