Award-winning author Mark M. Bello presents another headline-inspired Zachary Blake legal thriller. Hayley Larson isn't a party girl, but she is tired of always doing everything her parents say. She decides to finally attend a Wilkinson party and see what all the hype is about. It isn't long before fellow classmates are in various states of inebriation throughout the lakefront mansion in West Bloomfield. Hayley contemplates leaving but decides to find a bathroom first. Upon exiting the master bath, the only one she could find available, Hayley is startled to see Oliver Wilkinson standing at the door, blocking her exit. "You scared the hell out of me! How long have you been standing there?" Barely coherent, incredibly drunk, stoned, or high, Wilkinson replies: "Hey, baby. Want to party?" The assault that night has tormented Hayley for twenty years. Now, Oliver Wilkinson is the President's nominee for a vacant seat on the Supreme Court, the position he has coveted his entire career. Hayley Larson can't let that happen. "Oliver Wilkinson on the Supreme Court? That is a bridge too far! He's a criminal and should be in prison! He should never have been granted a law license . . ."But Wilkinson will stop at nothing for a seat on the court . . . NOTHING! Only Hayley stands in his way.
