Killing of Mindi Quintana

A killer with a book... A lawyer pushed too far... Freddy Builder kills Mindi Quintana and is writing the book about their relationship everybody wants--it's a lying rewrite of her life and of their miserably thin involvement. Excerpts appearing to acclaim, a televised trial is in the offing, and a new celebrity killer takes the stage--the iconic poet-murderer, a jailhouse literary sensation. Freddy's straight arrow lawyer plays his sworn role as advocate; but as Freddy builds his fame with the bones of his victim, he finds himself dreaming of justice. And of comeuppance. For a killer with a book. For fame through the backdoor of murder.

A murderer thrives on the attention devoted to him as he awaits trial. The media fawns over him, and a ghostwriter helps him write a book. The prosecuting attorney must find a way of denying him the celebrity--and literary acclaim--he seeks.
