Freedman is one of the most interesting names in American crime fiction. An award-winning film and television screenwriter, he knows how to build a plot and drive it with a pace of increasing suspense, keeping the reader intrigued and tense chapter after chapter. One of his most successful characters is lawyer Luke Garrison, disillusioned with his profession after sentencing an innocent man to death. Garrison, the protagonist of the bestselling book \"Above the Law,\" now reappears in a tense and frighteningly contemporary plot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003eThe Disappearance\u003c\/em\u003e revolves around the trial of a famous journalist accused of the murder of a 14-year-old girl, Emma Lancaster. The girl had been taken from her room one morning; her unrecognizable body was discovered in the woods days later. A year passes until Emma's belongings are found by chance in the car of the promising and influential Joe Allison, a longtime friend of the Lancasters. Although the clues seem conclusive, Allison swears his innocence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eGarrison agrees to defend him to prevent a repeat of the mistake that still haunts him. But Garrison doesn't completely trust his client. As he delves deeper into the story, the lawyer realizes he's dealing with the most sordid aspects of human nature: ambition, betrayal, and perversion. To practice his profession, he must delve into this mire and unravel the secrets of Emma's torn personality—a tragic victim of her own seductive power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The environment of moral degradation in which Allison and the Lancaster family live is shocking.

It is these secrets that Luke decides to bring to light, even if it means losing the case, ruining his career, and even risking his own life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176105722108,"sku":"9788571237827","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/e3dc6373d8d5874536cd7c823773d36b_1f7809f3-cc7b-4a07-a5f1-156e19cb7bdd.jpg?v=1778313513"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/j-f-freedman.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
