Perjury Author:Stan Latreille A burned-out criminal lawyer from Chicago to a rustic Michican town to open a lucrative civil law practice, only to find himself appointed by the court to the biggest criminal case in the county. A woman is accused of perjuring herself when she testified that her husband sexually abused their daughter. Complicating things are a prosecutor out fo... more »r blood, a politically-minded judge, and a town that wants his client punished no matter what. Drawn into the seedy underbelly of the seemingly harmless town, the lawyer must make a fateful choice of justice--with the fate of an innocent child in the balance.
