FRAMED - None

The problem is many of the suspects are friends of the victim or of Laura, herself: two prosecutors, an attorney in private practice, a photographer, a scientist at the med school, and Laura's client, himself.

The malpractice case centers around a woman who is near death as a result of a botched operation at a prominent New York hospital with particularly deep pockets-a ripe target for seven-figure insurance claims. But Dr. DiTucci's suspicious death only raises more questions for all involved: who killed him-and who will be next? When Zangara alerts Goodman to the possible chicanery going on in his courtroom, the two men must determine if the woman is the victim of flagrant medical malpractice, or if mobsters are killing doctors merely to win a lawsuit.

Soon an ever-widening web of players emerges that includes organized crime heads, hit men, crooked cops, corrupt lawyers, philanderers, and gamblers. They battle each other in a seedy world that links the highest echelons of our judicial system with the lowest depths of criminal activity.
