It would take a lawyer with unusual forensic skill, a lawyer who knew every courtroom trick to get the boy off. The aging Jim Curtayne who had been away three years for his "health" was O'Hara's lawyer. Curtayne still had a courtroom presence, bu Eleazar Lipsky could he summon the fire and spirit necessary to outwit the wily assistant DA, Barra? Barra was out for a conviction - and he was sure he could get one. O'Hara's life hung on Curtayne's ability to convince the jury of a reasonable doubt. Could Curtayne justify the faith of O'Hara's parents, O'Hara himself, his own wife and daughter, and muster his old strength, his power to improvise in time to defeat the coldly brilliant Barra? As the author of The Kiss of Death develops the courtroom drama, the characters are sharply revealed, the pace and excitement mount steadily, and you will wait with tense expectancy for the outcome of THE PEOPLE AGAINST O'HARA..
