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

He looked her in the eye. 'I blacked out. The next thing I remember was waking up in the back of Tony's car.'


'It must have been very close in time to when the accused entered the shop.'


Remo's focus changed to look behind her then back. 'Yeah, I guess.'


'One final question. Has your mother ever retaliated, struck back, against your father before?'


He didn't think about it, said, 'He'd have killed her if she had.'


'No further questions, your Honour.' Where was Robert?


Thierry stood and shook himself, stiff from sitting. 'Mr Stavros, do you have any knowledge of what took place when your father was murdered?'


'You say that when you regained consciousness your brother Tony was driving you home?'


'Do you have any recollection if you were removed from the shop before or after your father's murder?'
