(Previously published as HELLO DARKNESS MY OLD FRIEND)
Alex Sedaka is appointed to defend a one-legged homeless man in what appears to be an open-and-shut case of stabbing amidst the homeless community. But who is the victim? Why did he have $2000 on him? And why didn't the killer take the money?
For Alex, the problems are only beginning, because his client isn't talking and the only clue to the victim's identity is a tattoo with the phrase "the truth about Hashem." But the case is much bigger than Alex imagines. Thousands of miles away, the British Prime Minister is taking a personal interest in the case... which seems to involve people in the highest of places.
Faced with attempts on his client's life and tension with his law partner Juanita, who is in a lesbian relationship with the new receptionist, Alex must keep his wits about him. But with SAS soldiers and MI6 officers stalking him, danger can come from any quarter.
