No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Having abandoned corporate law, David Adams is now the voice of justice for the city of Austin's vulnerable outcasts. His new client is Parker Barnes, a trembling twelve-year-old runaway and foster-care poster boy arrested for petty theft. Dealt a rough hand in life, he reminds David of his own childhood. This should be a simple, if heartbreakingly familiar, case. Until the FBI muscles in. Parker is also a suspect in the murder of a federal witness. No matter how desperate Parker's denial, David fears there's so much more to the kid's hard-luck story than he's letting on. Especially when a hit man sends the boy running to the only safe place he knows: the streets. With both the feds and a killer on Parker's trail, the hunt is on. Teaming up with a pro bono investigator and utilizing his reliable band of street-savvy friends, David must find Parker first if he's to save the boy from an undeserved fate. And maybe even save himself.
