No Customer Reviews
Meet Hiram Garbuncle, a seasoned criminal defense attorney with an unquenchable thirst for money and liquor, supplemented by sports and sex. His life is a delicate balance between law's hallowed halls and the bottom of a whiskey bottle. Across town, Alec Monceau is eking out a living as a computer salesman, striving to support his daughter's family in Trinidad. In the pivotal year of 2008, his car sport an Obama bumper sticker-a seemingly innocuous political endorsement that draws him into a terrifying ordeal of an unjust traffic stop and a savage police assault. Garbuncle, an avowed alcoholic and cynic, finds himself torn between his miserly instincts and a compelling pro bono case. His certainty of a triumphant defense makes him reckless, leading to a mistrial. But when he unearths damning evidence against the police officers, his mission mutates: It's no longer just about winning a case; it's about ensuring survival for himself and his client, while a new trial looms. Blood on Their Hands forges a mesmerizing narrative from suspense and thrills, sharp twists and comic relief, and riveting courtroom drama. Amid the intense action sequences and scenes intimating lust, humor rises like a benevolent phoenix, lightening the deep pathos of a tragic love story. This tale teems with vibrant characters, piquant dialogue, mesmerizing twists and turns, and a wrenching moral dilemma, delivering a message that resonates in our time. But at its heart, "Blood on Their Hands" is a transformative journey-a poignant saga of redemption against all odds. Prepare to be enthralled, amused, and deeply moved by this remarkable novel.
