The Vendetta Defense

By Lisa Scottoline

Book Number 6 in the Rosato and Associates Series.

In short, just the woman to turn to if you’re charged with murdering the head of a particularly vicious family of crooks. With the aid of a posse of octagenarian pigeon fanciers, Judy takes on the mob and proves that there is justice after all.
