Sometimes the pursuit of justice isn't enough.
Sometimes the law of vengeance is the only path.
“ Mike Papantonio offers the rare combination of a top-flight trial lawyer who can write with a high level of skill, and spin a yarn right up there with John Grisham and David Baldacci. ”
— F. Lee Bailey, author and famed trial lawyer
“ Law and Vengeance is a brilliant web of relationships and intrigue that will captivate anyone interested in the challenges of criminal justice in our modern culture. ”
— Kerry Kennedy, human rights activist
