He walks free to continue being an asshole. The whole world makes sense."Time to upgrade to that SUV, Lil?" she says, mischievous glee in her eyes.ADA Lincoln Agnew:I smile as I pull into the driveway, although my stomach twists itself into knots with guilt.Lieutenant Detective Matthew Landers' BMW is out front.There would be no reason for my neighbors to think that's out of place.

"How long do we have this time?" he breathes into my neck, and makes an attempt to pull out my chignon but it's far too well-pinned.We both laugh, and I pull out the pins myself. "At least an hour. But savor it… because this is going to be the last time." I shake my mouse-brown hair out, and it splays over my shoulders, crinkled by the chignon."You said that last time," he says, running his hand along the side of my neck. "And the time before."A CASE OF HATE is the prequel (Book 0) in a series of legal thrillers featuring the brilliant legal minds Lincoln Agnew and Liliana Fairweather.
