Publisher's noteReluctantly aiding a bereaved widow throughout a wrongful death lawsuit against the government and military for the death of her Iraq war soldier husband, attorney and former marine David Sloane uncovers disturbing evidence of a dangerous adversary who retaliates by threatening David's family. AnnotationWith his characteristic speed-of-lightning pacing, bestseller Robert Dugoni sweeps readers up in this legal thriller starring insanely successful Seattle attorney David Sloane, who uncovers a conspiracy when he begrudgingly looks into a military officer's suspicious death in Iraq. Just minutes after winning a $1.6 million wrongful-death verdict, attorney David Sloane confronts the one case that threatens to blemish his unbeaten record in the courtroom. Beverly Ford wants Sloane to sue the United States government and military in the mysterious death of her husband, James, a national guardsman killed in Iraq. While a decades-old military doctrine might make Ford's case impossible to win, Sloane, a former soldier himself, is compelled to find justice for the widow and her four children in what is certain to become the biggest challenge of his career. With little hard evidence to go on, Sloane calls on his friend, reclusive former CIA agent turned private investigator Charles Jenkins, to track down the other men serving with Ford the night he died. Alarmingly, two of the four who returned home alive didn't stay that way for long, and though the mission's wheelchairbound commander now works for a civilian contractor, he refuses to talk. The final -- and youngest -- soldier is also the most elusive, but he's their only shot at discovering the truth -- if Sloane and Jenkins can keep him alive long enough to tell it. Meanwhile, Sloane isn't the only one on a manhunt. As he propels his case into a federal courtroom, those seeking to hide the truth threaten Sloane's family, forcing his new wife Tina and stepson Jake into hiding, where they become the targets of a relentless killer. Now Sloane must race to uncover what really happened on that fatal mission, not only to bring justice to a family wronged but to keep himself and the people closest to him from becoming the next casualties....

This is the third book I have read by Mr. Dugoni. WRONGFUL DEATH is a second
book of a series and it is my favorite. His first novel is JURY MASTER. The main
characters are attorney David Sloane and sidekick/private investigator Charles
Jenkins. Sloane is hire by a woman whose husband was in the National Guard and
was killed in Iraq. She wants to sue the United Sates and military for his
mysterious death. As Sloane and Jenkins delve deeper into their investigation,
the bodies start piling up. I like Mr. Dugoni’s style of writing. He breaks the
chapters up into segments, which takes you from one character to another and
then back again. It keeps you reading, to find out what happens to the
character. I found this book thrilling and exciting page-turner. It kept me up
all night reading it. I look forward to his next book. I loved this book.
