A must-read for fans of Lee Child, John Grisham and Michael Connelly. Combining gripping action and ingenious plotting, THE PLEA is the brilliant new legal thriller from the author of THE DEFENCE.
'Highly intelligent, twist-laden and absolutely unputdownable' Eva Dolan
'My life, what a thriller! Breathlessly brilliant and fiendishly clever.' Miranda Dickinson
FRAUD. BLACKMAIL. MURDER.
IT'S ALL IN A DAY'S WORK FOR EDDIE FLYNN.
When David Child, a major client of a corrupt New York law firm, is arrested for murder, the FBI ask con artist-turned-lawyer Eddie Flynn to secure the case and force him to testify against the firm.
Eddie is not someone who is easily coerced, but when the FBI reveal that they have incriminating files on his wife, he knows he has no choice.
But Eddie is convinced the man is innocent, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. With the FBI putting pressure on him to secure the deal, Eddie must find a way to prove his client's innocence.
But the stakes are high - his wife is in danger.And not just from the FBI . . .
'One of the most purely entertaining books you'll read this year. It's a blast' John Connolly
'Steve is a fantastic thriller writer' Mark Billingham
Praise for The Plea: His client is innocent. His wife is guilty.

Lively, clever and enjoyable . . . Cavanagh writes vividly about American injustice . . . The constant action is interrupted only by absorbing courtroom scenes - THE TIMES
-
Part classic courtroom drama in the John Grisham tradition and part Bruce Willis-like action hero fiction straight out of the DIE HARD franchise, this is a rip-roaring action-packed and highly entertaining debut - IRISH INDEPENDENT
-
Reads a lot like a courtroom drama that Lee Child might write about Jack Reacher's younger, hotter-headed brother - IRISH TIMES
