Buffa "Buffa's characters are compelling; the dialogue authentic and well crafted. With the current political upheaval, Buffa's newest novel hits home in more ways than one. The author draws on his own experience as a criminal defense attorney to render realistic courtroom proceedings. Highly recommended for lovers of legal and political thrillers." ―Library Journal (Starred Review) Expect NECESSITY to appear on numerous "Best of" lists, both because of and in spite of what it is. One cannot walk away from a Buffa novel without feeling educated to at least some extent and entertained to the fullest." ―Bookreporter In the grand tradition of courtroom thrillers, there's a whopper of a reveal as the last witness is called. Fans of political thrillers and courtroom dramas, as well as those who can't get enough of the latest headlines, will race through this one." ―Booklist An accomplished first novel... it ends with a couple of twists that are really shocking. And it leaves you wanting to go back to the beginning and read it again." ―The New York Times on The Defense A great, and I mean great, read; what a book! D. W. Buffa, who gave us The Defense, now brings us The Prosecution. I won't give away the plot, but let's say this: You'll love this book. If you don't, you're at the morgue." ―Larry King Buffa's spare observation, crackling dialogue, and shadowy circle of criminals, lawyers, and lovers keep you riveted. ―Entertainment Weekly "A Dan Brown read-alike tailor-made for an election year. ―Booklist on Hillary The Who in the Whodunit rolls out tantalizingly....Bottom line: Add it to your docket. ―People Magazine on The Legacy An excellent legal thriller with a well thought-out plot and believable characters. But it also scores as a novel of cold, calculating revenge perpetrated by an intelligence so formidable it goes unrecognized until too late. ―USA Today<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>D.W.
