PRAISE FOR THE THRILLERS OF R.J. JAGGER: WITNESS CHASE “Witness Chase is a terrifying, gripping cross between James Patterson and John Grisham. Jagger has created a truly killer thriller.” --J.A. Konrath BAD CLIENT “As engaging as the debut [Witness Chase], this exciting blend of police procedural and legal thriller recalls the early works of Scott Turow and Lisa Scottoline.” --Library Journal LAWYER TRAP "A riveting plot" --Kirkus Reviews The author "builds suspense effectively, and his hero is both likable and multidimensional. A too-little-known hard-boiled series that deserves attention." --Booklist PRETTY LITTLE LAWYER A “clever and engrossing mystery tale involving gorgeous women, lustful men and scintillating suspense.” --Foreword Magazine ATTORNEY'S RUN “Part of what makes this thriller thrilling is that you sense there to be connections among all the various subplots; the anticipation of their coming together keeps the pages turning.” --Booklist CLIENT TRAP Nick Teffinger "knows he shouldn’t let a woman get in the way of investigating his latest case, but that’s the way this homicide detective rolls. *** A throwback to the era of Mike Hammer and Shell Scott, [Teffinger] is old school all the way—and that means good retro fun.” --Booklist NEVER DEAD “This is one of the best thrillers I’ve read yet.” --New Mystery Reader Magazine ANCIENT PREY "A well told tale with a masterful blend of intrigue, murder, greed, lust, and that little touch of horror will keep you reading." --New Mystery Reader Magazine A TWIST OF SIN Denver homicide detective Nick Teffinger "leaves for Japan on an unsanctioned pursuit.
