Description

The Burden of Proof by Scott Turow

From the author of the international bestseller ‘Presumed Innocent’, this is a another story about Alejandro ‘Sandy’ Stern, a celebrated defence lawyer. Arriving home from a business trip he finds his wife of thirty years, Clara has committed suicide. He is overwhelmed by Clara’s suicide, which forces him to confront all he does not understand about his life, including his children. Even in his mourning, Stern is drawn back to the law as defender of Dixon, an immensely rich owner of a commodities futures brokerage and a wily financial gamesman, who is also the husband of Stern’s beloved sister Sylvia. As Sandy seeks to unravel both the painful mystery of Clara’s death and the tangled web of Dixon’s financial wheeling and dealing, his whole world, marriage, family, career, is brought under the intense scrutiny that only a lawyer as persistent, perceptive, and honest as Stern can muster
