PRAISE FOR THE LEGACY 'As the whos in the whodunit roll out tantalizingly, Buffa expertly lays out the chessboard of the courtroom and its inhabitants, who range from crusty to cunning. Bottom line: add it to your docket.' -People 'A gripping legal thriller that keeps the reader intrigued until the last page.' -Illawarra Mercury In The Legacy the charismatic Joseph Antonelli heads to the legal battlegrounds of San Francisco and a cast of characters that includes national powerbrokers and international spies. On a San Francisco street dark and dense with fog, somebody has shot and killed United States Senator Jeremy Fullerton in the front seat of his car. The police arrest Jamaal Washington, a young black man caught fleeing the scene. The youth, a medical student, says that he tried to help the senator, but ran because he was afraid of the police. However, all the evidence says otherwise. The only lawyer willing to take the case, fraught with political and social ramifications, is an outsider - and Joseph Antonelli leaves his Portland, Oregon practice in search of justice. As he begins to prepare his defence, he finds himself lost in a world ruled by backroom politics and old money. He digs deeper and uncovers a chain of deceit, betrayal, and naked ambition- and soon discovers just how much one person will risk in order to leave behind a legacy. D.W. Buffa was a defence attorney for ten years. He is the author of five acclaimed novels featuring defense attorney Joseph Antonelli - The Judgment, The Prosecution, The Defense and his new novel Star Witness.
