Since taking on a famous celebrity client, defense attorney Jane Smith has been chased down, shot at, and threatened with contempt of court. She’s a survivor. For now. 

The Hamptons on Long Island is known for its beautiful beaches, its luxury lifestyle—and its exclusive legal advice.
Undefeated criminal defense attorney Jane Smith, known as the Hamptons Lawyer, represents a local real estate mogul with more enemies than clients.
When Jane’s own life is threatened, mounting a legal defense turns into self-defense. 
Knowing every day in court could be her last, she’s armed and ready: with brilliant arguments, hard evidence—and two Glocks. 
Until she hears the words “not guilty,” Jane Smith never fails to make her case.
