Book Description
Baxter "Boxer" Tate is preparing to graduate with poor grades from an unaccredited law school when he first encounters Miller Johnson, a partner at Malloy, a third-rate insurance defense firm. Boxer is being sued in a personal-injury case, but after meeting with Miller, he knows he will get Miller's firm to give him a job--his first step on the road to judicial superstardom. After passing the bar exam, Boxer joins the Malloy law firm and finds himself entering the legal profession through a variety of judicial hellholes. There he thrives, learning to be an articulate, effective advocate--a courtroom magician of sorts. His star begins to rise, and he's finally going in the direction he wants. But then he loses some big ones and spends time in jail. He falls in love with two women at once and is soon hated by judges and adversaries alike. As his fate becomes more uncertain, he wonders whether the judicial system actually renders justice in a world where the bench and the bar are both corrupt. This legal thriller follows the changing fates of a talented but controversial lawyer through the ins and outs of the legal profession.

Book Description
“Funny, outrageous, cynical, and spellbinding.”—People magazine. In this first-ever digital edition of John Gregory Dunne’s acclaimed collection Crooning, readers find evidence from the get-go confirming the writer’s reputation as one of the most clear-seeing, incisive observers of the American cultural and political scene. In sixteen sharp, distinctively voiced essays, Dunne profiles a blacklisted Hollywood screenwriter who three decades later passed himself off as a young Chicano novelist; considers the Kennedy men and conservative William F. Buckley, takes us inside California’s labyrinthine water politics and criminal justice system, details the workings of the Los Angeles county morgue, and is on the ground observing in Jerusalem just weeks before the intifada enveloped the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 1987. Here, too, are superbly entertaining accounts of the Hollywood star system and studio machine, Dunne drawing on two decades of experience as an L.A.-based journalist and fiction-writer with regular forays into screenwriting. He is candid and insightful about the business of writing and life of the dedicated writer as well. In “Laying Pipe,” Dunne chronicles the five-year experience of writing his epic novel The Red White and Blue. And in “Critical,” he focuses on book reviews and reviewers from his perspective as an author who, along with manifold strong notices, also received the occasional critical knock. He names names, and takes the opportunity to fire back at one of his critics. Early in Crooning, Dunne tells us that when he tires of the writing grind, he fantasizes about being a Johnny Mercer-like crooner, then reveals a moment later that he is tone deaf. The title, then, is playful - and in more than one way. Instead of writing sweet narrative melodies, Dunne built his career through work that exposes, challenges, thrums with opinion, and bristles with spiky, knowing humor. Download Crooning and dive into a book of provocative reportage, great stories, and witty, vigorous prose.
