Synopsis: "I love the dry wit of Teller's work. Nelson Demille meets Turow or Grisham!" —Goodreads review of Overkill

A Jaywalker Case: Book 1 (originally published in 2008)

Skirting the rules is his stock in trade, but this time criminal defense attorney Harrison J. Walker has gone too far and earned himself a suspension. Before his enforced vacation, he gets permission to clear his ten ongoing cases, and the tenth case will test everything he knows about winning.

Samara Moss is the poster child for gold-diggers everywhere. She married an elderly billionaire when she was an eighteen-year-old ex-prostitute, and now she’s stabbed him in the heart. Or has she? Jaywalker’s not so sure. But is his determination to exonerate her driven by moral certainty, his driving need to win – or his desire for this particular client’s undying gratitude?
