  • "Best-selling author Lisa Scottoline draws on her experience as a trial lawyer to create memorable legal thrillers. In The Vendetta Defense, she offers an intriguing look at the moral and legal ethics of both courtroom procedure and personal vengeance. Lawyer Judy Carrier lands the case of a lifetime when she agrees to defend 80-year-old?Pigeon Tony? Lucia, arrested for the death of Angelo Coluzzi. Judy?s only problem is that Pigeon Tony freely admits to the killing. He claims it?s merely the justified response to a vendetta begun by Coluzzi over 50 years ago. Now Judy is caught in the middle of a life-and-death blood feud, where the rule of law means nothing next to the heat of vengeance. Following in the wake of her New York Times best-seller Moment of Truth, The Vendetta Defense is Lisa Scottoline?s most compelling thriller yet, a thought-provoking mix of history and contemporary legal ethics. Barbara Rosenblat?s brilliant narration captures all the growing suspense?both in and out of the courtroom."@en
  • "Judy Carrier takes the case of her career to defend Anthony Lucia, fondly known as "Pigeon Tony," who freely admits to killing his lifelong enemy in order to settle a personal vendetta. Her client's guilt, however, is only the beginning of Judy's problems. The victim's family wants revenge and is determined to finish off Pigeon Tony and Judy before the case goes to trial. Then there's Pigeon Tony's hunky grandson, who makes Judy think about everything but the law. In a case steeped in blood and memory, it will take brains and a lot of luck to save Pigeon Tony. But if anyone will see justice done, it's this gutsy girl who'll risk everything to win -- including her life."@en
