Dana Cutler

"A master of plot and pacing-and one of those rare authors who can create a genuinely surprising ending." - Lisa Scottoline "It takes a really crafty storyteller to put people on the edge of their seats and keep them there. Phillip Margolin does just that." - Chicago Tribune The crew from the New York Times bestseller Executive Privilege is back in another pulse-racing thriller from Phillip Margolin. Fans of John Grisham, David Baldacci, James Patterson, and Scott Turow-as well as Margolin's own immensely popular Amanda and Frank Jaffe books like Fugitive, Wild Justice, and Proof Positive-won't be able to put down Supreme Justice until the last spellbinding page.

Deadly intrigue, breathtaking twists, and exhilarating suspense await in the third book of Phillip Margolin's New York Times bestselling Washington Trilogy. Hot on the heels of Supreme Justice, Margolin delivers another heart-pounding thriller featuring private investigator Dana Cutler and lawyer Brad Miller, who are forced by a terrorist attack on a football stadium-and by the escape of Executive Privilege's convicted serial killer Clarence Little-to follow a sinister trail of lies, treachery, and betrayal into an unexpected new arena: the U.S. Congress. "Phillip Margolin knows how to pack in the thrills." -Tess Gerritsen
