While Justice Sleeps
Stacey Abrams [Abrams, Stacey]
While Justice Sleeps is a gripping, complexly plotted thriller set within the halls of the U.S. Supreme Court.
Avery
Keene, a brilliant young law clerk for the legendary Justice Howard
Wynn, is doing her best to hold her life together--excelling in an
arduous job with the court while also dealing with a troubled family.
When the shocking news breaks that Justice Wynn--the cantankerous swing
vote on many current high-profile cases--has slipped into a coma,
Avery's life turns upside down. She is immediately notified that Justice
Wynn has left instructions for her to serve as his legal guardian and
power of attorney. Plunged into an explosive role she never anticipated,
Avery finds that Justice Wynn had been secretly researching one of the
most controversial cases before the court--a proposed merger between an
American biotech company and an Indian genetics firm, which promises to
unleash breathtaking results in the medical field. She also discovers
that Wynn suspected a dangerously related conspiracy that infiltrates
the highest power corridors of Washington.
As political wrangling
ensues in Washington to potentially replace the ailing judge whose life
and survival Avery controls, she begins to unravel a carefully
constructed, chesslike sequence of clues left behind by Wynn. She comes
to see that Wynn had a much more personal stake in the controversial
case and realizes his complex puzzle will lead her directly into harm's
way in order to find the truth. While Justice Sleeps is a
cunningly crafted, sophisticated novel, layered with myriad twists and a
vibrant cast of characters. Drawing on her astute inside knowledge of
the court and political landscape, Stacey Abrams shows herself to be not
only a force for good in politics and voter fairness but also a major
new talent in suspense fiction.
