Overview

"""The Law is a Jealous Mistress and requires long and constant courtship. It is not to be won by trifling favors but by lavish homage."" - Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story Over many years, Eddie Terrell and his firm have grown in prominence and with success after success. There have been failures too but few and far between. He has become not just a 'good lawyer'; he has become a craftsman, an artist. He has had much help along the way. His powers of creation and elucidation remain stout and strong and he is a fearsome opponent. And now here, in the final volume of the Eddie Terrell Trilogy, Eddie realizes that no great races last forever and that he is running out of runway. His mind and abilities and evaluating skills are still razor sharp but he knows the clock is ticking and he is troubled by a horizon of conclusion that begins to loom ever closer before him. Immortality is never to be purchased and he knows it. He presses on with more vigor than ever. He will run through the tape, not just to it. And as he wends his way through the jungle of the law and the courts, he is occupied by his standard heavy-lifting fare, a variety of matters which include wrongful death and alienation of affections and domestic discord and civil litigation, serious torts and medical malpractice and also deceit and lies and solutions, some necessary but unsavory. His partner and savvy helper Mikey watches him closely as he goes. She is his ballast and comfort. But overarching all is The Law. It is his lodestar and Eddie is drawn to it as Icarus was drawn inexorably to the sun. He will not turn back. ""The moving finger writes and having writ moves on: Nor all thy piety nor wit shall lure it back to cancel half a line, nor all thy tears wash out a word"" - The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam"
