A Butch Karp-Marlene Ciampi Thriller: Trap (Series #27) (Paperback)

"The pace is fast, the courtroom scenes make you feel like you're there" ( Kirkus Reviews )--a devastating deadly explosion sets a breakneck tone that never lets up in New York Times bestselling author Robert K. Tanenbaum's action-packed Butch Karp legal drama. A tremendous fatal blast rocks a book-signing event where supporters have gathered to see the inspirational leading advocate for New York City charter schools, a Holocaust survivor. A neo-Nazi is the prime suspect, but District Attorney Butch Karp believes the hate crime may be a cover-up for a more sinister plot. The treacherous teacher's union president has long been furious at the unqualified successes of the charter school movement, which threatens to expose his corrupt practices--manipulation and misappropriation of union funds and, now, possibly even murder. But is there another motive behind the attack that could derail the case? How will Karp discover the set-up, and can he do so in time to bring justice? This exciting legal thriller ends in a dramatic courtroom showdown that proves New York Times bestselling author Robert K. Tanenbaum is always at the top of his game.
