One Night, No Names: A Thrilling Novel (Stephen Tait's Psychological Thrillers)
She prosecuted hundreds of men. She never expected to prosecute him.
One stormy night in Chicago, burned-out Assistant District Attorney Evelyn Hart walks into a jazz bar and meets a stranger with dark eyes and an honest smile. No names. No histories. Just one electric, unforgettable night - and a promise to disappear by sunrise.
She keeps her promise.
Six months later, Evelyn is assigned the city's most explosive murder trial. The defendant is Adrian Vale - accused of brutally killing his billionaire business partner.
He's also the man from that night.
The evidence is brutal. The fingerprints. The threats. The motive. Everything says he's guilty.
Except Evelyn can't stop noticing what the evidence doesn't say.
As she digs deeper, she uncovers a conspiracy that reaches into the highest levels of Chicago's legal and political world - corrupt judges, laundered money, and a decades-old secret powerful people have already killed to protect. Someone knows about her anonymous night with Adrian. And they're using it to control the trial.
Now Evelyn faces an impossible choice: convict the man the evidence points to - or trust the man she can't forget.
In this city, justice is for sale. The question is whether she's willing to pay the price to take it back.
