Elisabeth Sharman has a secret.
As a senior solicitor with the Australian Capital Territory Legal Aid Office she's defending a 19 year old with amnesia. He can't remember committing the murder for which he's on trial. Or says he can't.
Robert Murphy has a problem: Elisabeth.
He's her instructing solicitor and she's not playing by the legal rules. She's new to the office. No-one knows her modus operandi. But it's more, much more, than an unusual methodology.
She's using her feminine wiles with him - to good effect - and he's afraid her motives aren't pure.
Will the secret, when revealed, explain everything? Or will the result be catastrophic?

A Legal Affair

Adrenalin exploded into her veins, her heart pumped fit to burst, making breathing a chancy erratic procedure, head a balloon and arms leaden, whole body shaking, skin crawling. Hands up to brush her face she encountered impediments in spaces that should be empty. Felt her way, succeeded in getting hands to face. Touched, winced. Scrubbed at the crawling around her neck, on her arms. Succeeded only in accelerating its spread. Remembered something coming through the windscreen. Extended her fingers. Rough. Bark. A tree. Came back to her face and winced again. The crawling threatening sanity, gingerly exploring where it hurt. Cheek, temple, ear, eye. Blind! Reasoned panic away. It was dark.
