Description

Attorney Richard Rosenberg doesn't care if his client is guilty or not, he just wants to get him off. The police don't care if there's another killer on the loose, as long as their suspect gets convicted. And the alibi that's going to make all the difference in the world to accused wife slayer Anson Carbinder is turning out to be a house of cards.Interviewing the participants in an all-night card game, Stanley gets a lot of fascinating poker details and the distinct impression that their stories are too good to be true. But it's not until the trial starts that Carbinder's alibi finally folds. And with the onset of the trial comes another murder; the courtroom's in an uproar.It's all enough to make Stanley wish he'd never entered the hallowed halls of justice. That's when his wife, Alice, the smartest woman Stanley knows, gives him a clue. Since the trial is obviously never going to get to the truth, Stanley should do some sleuthing on his own - and maybe, just maybe, take justice into his own hands.
