The Big Cut
Johnny Ocean -- a loner working from his Manhattan townhouse -- is a street-smart, connected New York City trial lawyer. He's formidable in the courtroom and famous for getting his clients what they want -- big money. The case starts out as business as usual -- Pandora Markham and Babette Longwood, two powerful sisters-in-law, are in a $170 million estate battle. Johnny doesn't expect to get himself and Mr. K, his Indian butler, mixed up with the Chinese mafia. Nor did he plan for a perilous attraction to client Pandora. Then Johnny gets involved with the last woman he'd expect; and the last woman who's good for him. Johnny works the courtroom angles with the smarts of a seasoned street fighter, and his story is a wide-open read -- fast paced -- it delivers a breathless climax.

Mindbending and Spellbinding!!!!

Before the Big Cut, thrillers were just thrilling. Golub's novel is scary, sexy and has plot with more wrinkles than a shar-pei. What's next Johnny Ocean?

Worthy first effort

Aaron Golub is clearly on the inside "know" of the New York court system. "The Big Cut" features PI/high power attorney, Johnny Ocean. Johnny handles cases for the rich who prefer to remain annonymous. He's a flashy guy who knows his way round a tort. K, Johnny's sikh houseman and part-time assistant is a fascinating character in his own right. When Johnny is handed a case in which he represents a mysterious woman named Pandora who's being sued for the payment of her dead husbands debt of $170 million by her sister-in-law he's in for more toil and trouble than he bargains for. He's shot, seduced, and lied to. But he's determined to get to the bottom of it. This is a great first effort on Golub's part. Hopefully, we'll see more of Johnny Ocean and K.
