From the back cover:

Private eye Stanley Hastings always wanted a ringside seat at a real-life murder trial. But now that he's got one, he's finding out that Justice isn't just blind, it's also deaf and dumb.

TRIAL

It couldn't have been easier. Stanley, at long last liberated from his role as ambulance chaser, only has to interview the six poker players who constitute the iron-clad alibi for accused wife-killer Anson Carbinder. Leave it to Stanley: once he starts interviewing, the alibi starts crumbling. Now Stanley is in the middle of a murder trial turned double murder mystery--and the only person in this courtroom who can get to the truth is Stanley Hastings himself.
