Matrimonial Causes, 17

Cliff Hardy's 17th case forces him to revisit his first "Tell me about your first case Cliff. You must remember it." "Sure, but Christ, I haven't thought of that in a long, long time." "What was it about?" "Back then? Divorce--what else? But there was a bit of perjury, fraud and murder as well." The early 70s, and in Cliff Hardy's first case there were perjury, fraud, murder, crooked cops, lawyers, PIs, and a call girl--scarcely an honest citizen in sight. Cliff Hardy was caught in the middle with a client he couldn't trust and nothing but questions for guidelines. In the end his survival became more important than the answers.
