Head of the Sex Crimes Unit of the district
attorney's office in Manhattan for decades, Linda Fairstein is
America's most visible legal expert on sexual assault and domestic
violence-which is why she writes some of the most compelling crime
thrillers of our time and why her Alexandra Cooper series has been
topping bestseller list for more than a decade. Fans turn to Fairstein
for ripped-from-the-headline crimes, cutting-edge investigations, and
vindication for victims. Linda Fairstein brings readers inside a world
of which they can't get enough, but one they hope to never see in real
life.
And for her twelfth novel, Fairstein takes Alexandra Cooper inside a world she'd rather not see.
