A high-powered attorney lands the case of her life - all while learning she has twelve months to live. James Patterson's favourite character since Alex Cross and a major new series launch. Her name is Jane Smith. But to friends and foes she's Jane Effing Smith. Why? Because she's the best criminal defense attorney in the Hamptons-the elite world of New York's rich and infamous. Because she's as good an investigator as she is a lawyer. Because she's tough. She's strong. As Jane is preparing to defend a high-profile client accused of a triple homicide she's also hired to revive a cold case - a cluster of unsolved murders. Then another bombshell lands: a devastating medical diagnosis. Terminal. She's got a year to live. But first she has a trial to win. Unless one of her many enemies kills her first.
