Cavanagh’s stellar debut provides everything a reader could ask for in a thriller—nail-biting suspense, a Russian nesting doll of a plot, and an original and compelling lead.” — Publishers Weekly, starred review The irreverence that Steve Cavanagh brings to his fictional portrayal of the legal profession is most notable in The Defence’s audacious opening. Everything a reader could ask for in a thriller —nail-biting suspense, a Russian nesting doll of a plot, and an original and compelling lead.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) This first book in the series introduces us to Eddie Flynn, a former con man turned lawyer, who has given up his career after a horrible ordeal that left him broken, and suffering from a deep crisis of conscience. Get ready for a legal thriller that'll grab you by the throat . . . Eddie Flynn makes his explosive debut." - Gerard Brennan

Me gustó que Flynn, el protagonista, no sea sólo un abogado sino tenga un pasado controversial y digamos... Un tanto turbio. Hay cierta dicotomía en su accionar y puede ser definido como moralmente gris. A terrified Eddie must employ every skill he learned in law school, the court and as a former con-man. He gradually learns that there are many cons, deceptions, double-crosses and twists, and he is the victim of one of the biggest cons of all. He has been set up to take the blame when the bomb he is forced to carry is detonated, and the mob has no intention of letting himself or his daughter live, regardless of the outcome of the trial. I love that quote from Robert Frost: ‘A jury consists of 12 persons chosen to decide who has the better lawyer.’”

Once he was a petty (but successful) conman, but was urged to use his skills to the general good and study to be a lawyer. At the time he was helped by a desire to see the medical insurance companies that badly let down his mother, see some justice.

Then, about halfway through, I felt we were off and running again. The story took on those twists and turns I’d been waiting for and I was gripped. I needed to know what happened next.

I wanted a slight separation from my professional life as lawyer,” he says of the pseudonym. “I started writing the book after my Mum passed away, and in many ways my pen name is a tribute to her, as Cavanagh was her maiden name. It’s also handy to have a name that appears fairly early in the alphabet – it helps with book browsing.”
