A Darker Justice by Sallie Bissell

September Staff Selection from Cecil

Someone appears to be killing federal judges. The FBI asks Mary Crow, an assistant district attorney, to protect Judge Irene Hannah, who they fear will be the next victim. This takes her into the Appalachian woods, the arms of her former lover, and eventually into underground caverns. Bissell's tale gathers a full head of narrative steam that keeps the pages turning. A great read for realistic thriller fans. - excerpt from Booklist, Copyright American Library Association
