Suzy's Case

A wild ride of a debut thriller packed with insider details that reveal the fascinating world of a "resourceful, funny, and thoroughly antiestablishment" (Booklist) New York lawyer who'll stop at nothing to secure justice.A young girl named Suzy is at the heart of a seemingly unwinnable case, and New York City personal injury attorney Tug Wyler is out to find justice. Boasting a combination of street smarts, legal brinksmanship, and no small amount of charm, Wyler discovers the truth behind her condition-and the conniving doctors and hospital administrators who went to great lengths to cover it up. As he seeks to win millions for Suzy-and her long-suffering mother, who cares for her night and day-Tug Wyler determinedly works his way through a maze of well-kept secrets to get to the truth-encountering a cast of memorably eccentric characters along the way. An eye-opening portrait of the brutally tough world of medical malpractice law in New York City, Suzy's Case exposes the aggressive, very-big-bucks, winner-takes-all game in which lawyers relentlessly cut corners, deals-and throats.
