A Certain Truth 
The Trials of Kit Shannon 
By James Scott Bell

   A rare breed of woman in 1907, gifted trial attorney Kit Shannon Fox finds herself relaxing, honeymooning on a cruiseship, until a frantic rap on her door turns life, as she knows it, upside down.

   A murder has taken place on board the ship, and the wife of the victim wants Kit to represent her, when accused of her husband's murder.
But as Kit interviews potential witnesses, things don't add up, and she ends up with more questions than answers.

   As the trial heats up, Kit is forced even further into an unwelcome limelight, having won case after notorious case, all of which have made headlines in newspapers all across the country. Not to mention the fact that her husband, Theodore Fox is also in the news, leading the pack in the breakneck race to perfect the first single engine aircraft.

   As if things aren't complicated enough already, toss in a pious busybody, who has little use for what she perceives as Kit's rebellious abandonment of hearth and home, even threatening to lambast her in her newspaper column. After a word from this meddling so and so, even Ted, always Kit's biggest supporter, isn't sure he wants her exposed to the ongoing horrors of trial law.

   With a long list of excellent titles to his credit, James Scott Bell has done it again, this time weaving a complicated tale, full of wonderul characters and surprising twists that will keep you enthralled till the very end. Can't wait to see what he does for an encore...
