James Patterson & Mike Lupica: 12 Months to Live (USA 2024)

From the Publisher:
"Patterson and Lupica make a great team" (Carl Hiaasen) who get "deep into the lives of strong women" (Louise Penny) and Jane Smith is their greatest creation -- a badass lawyer with a year to live.

"Jane Smith is the best character we've ever created. Bar none." -- James Patterson and Mike Lupica

Tough-as-nails criminal defense attorney Jane Smith is hip-deep in the murder trial of the century.

Actually, her charmless client might've committed several murders.

She's also fallen in love with a wonderful guy. And an equally wonderful dog, a mutt.

But Jane doesn't have much time. She's just received a terminal diagnosis giving her twelve months.

Unless she's murdered before her expiration date.
