O'Brien's Law: A Legal Thriller Set in 1970s San Francisco

By John McNellis

"A vivid and memorable romp through a perfectly captured San Francisco of the 70's" -Mary C. Taylor, 5-star review

Young attorney Michael O'Brien would rather chase women, play basketball, or do almost anything other than practice law in 1970s San Francisco. When he's handed what seems like a loser case, his lackadaisical approach to his career is about to catch up with him.

His charm and good looks won't save him this time...

When Malcolm Knox, one of the city's wealthiest men, drops dead, O'Brien is suddenly tasked with finding $50 million in missing bearer bonds from the estate. Despite his natural intelligence and wit, O'Brien's distractions-including wooing a former fashion model who owns a small bakery chain-seem destined to derail his investigation.

As missteps accumulate and practicing law becomes increasingly dangerous, O'Brien risks losing his job, his girlfriend, and even his life. Navigating the vibrant streets of 1970s San Francisco, he'll have to grow up fast if he wants to survive.

Perfect for readers who love:

Legal thrillers with witty, flawed protagonistsRich historical detail of 1970s San FranciscoFast-paced mysteries with romantic elementsClever dialogue and sardonic humorPage-turning suspense that builds to a satisfying conclusion

"McNellis' love for and command of language-rich language that applies the perfect descriptive words and clever turns of phrase-are enthralling." -Melissa Lukin, 5-star review
