John Hart:The king of lies € 9,20
Jackson Workman Pickens - `Work`to his friends - an unambitious lawyer in a small Southern town, has some serious baggage. His mother died a year ago from a `fall` down the family`s colonial staircase, and his father, Ezra, has been missing ever since. Work is left to deal with his psychologically damaged sister, his father`s legal caseload and his own rocky marriage.
Power and greed bring many enemies, especially for a man as cruel as Ezra Pickens, so when his body turns up pretty much everyone in town is asuspect - but only one man is charged with the murder. With time, his wife and puplic opinion against him, Work embarks on his toughest case yet: proving his own innocence. His investigation will uncover a web of intrigue he could never have imagined, and he soon realizes that no one is above suspicion - even those he loves most.
