Title
House Witness: A Joe DeMarco Thriller - Hardcover
by Mike Lawson (Author)
Edgar Award Finalist: Someone may be tampering with witnesses to protect the powerful in this "thoroughly involving" thriller (Booklist, starred review).
John Mahoney, Minority Leader of the House and Joe DeMarco's longtime employer, has kept more than one secret from his wife over the years, but none so explosive as this: He has a son, and that son has just been shot dead in a bar in Manhattan. Mahoney immediately dispatches DeMarco to New York to assist prosecutor Justine Porter, but with five bystanders willing to testify against the rich-kid killer, the case seems like a slam-dunk. That is, until Porter begins to suspect that someone is interfering with those witnesses, and that this may be connected to a pattern of cases across the country. Is someone getting witnesses out of the way when the fate of a wealthy defendant is on the line?
With the help of Porter's intern, as outrageously smart as she is young, veteran DC fixer DeMarco becomes determined to follow that question through to its violent resolution in House Witness, "one of the best in a superior series" (Deadly Pleasures).
