Within the Bounds Book

A young attorney plots the path of a killer in this powerful legal thriller. Cliff Nielson is a rising star at Ramwell and Bosely, the most prestigious law firm in the South. Accomplished, driven, and definitely on the fast track, Cliff has sacrificed almost everything for the sake of the firm and its brilliant and charismatic senior partner, Lewis Sherwood. When Ramwell and Bosely takes on the defense of the man accused of being the Resort Ripper - a brutal, psychopathic serial killer of beautiful young women - Cliff is repulsed by the reprehensible nature of the crimes, but exhilarated at the prospect that Lewis Sherwood, America's most renowned criminal lawyer, will represent America's most notorious criminal suspect. Through arduous weeks of research, including visits to the resort crime scenes where the Ripper's handiwork has been found, and hours spent in front of the computer analyzing evidence and opportunity, Cliff and his team of lawyers and investigators search for a crack in the prosecution's case. The deeper they dig, however, the more disturbing their discoveries, until Cliff is forced to put everything - his future at the firm, and his very life - on the line. With pinpoint accuracy gleaned from the author's years of experience as an attorney, and with a plot as compelling as today's headlines, Within the Bounds is the suspenseful and mesmerizing debut of a talented new writer.

Cliff Nielson is a sharp young lawyer who has sacrificed nearly everything to become the rising star of Ramwell and Bosely. When the firm takes on the high-profile case of an accused serial killer, Cliff becomes a key player in the defense.
