Robbie Feaver is a successful personal injury lawyer, with a burgeoning practice, a way with the ladies and a beautiful wife he loves - who is dying of an irreversible illness. He also has a secret bank account where he deposits funds which make their way into the pockets of the judges who decide Robbie's cases. Robbie is apprehended and, in exchange for leniency, agrees to 'wear a wire' as he continues to try to fix decisions. The FBI agent supervising him goes by the alias of Evon Miller. She is stocky, lonely, uncomfortable in her skin, and impervious to Robbie's charms. And she carries secrets of her own. As the law tightens its net, Robbie's and Evon's stories converge thrillingly and ultimately tragically. Turow shows us new sides of Kindle County, the world of greed and human failing he has made immortal in Presumed Innocent, The Burden of Proof, Pleading Guilty and The Laws of Our Fathers. Personal Injuries is Turow's most memorable, most moving novel - a powerful drama of individuals trying to escape their character.
