The Fall: A Novel (Dismas Hardy)

The Fall: A Novel (Dismas Hardy)

From New York Times bestselling author John Lescroart, a riveting new novel of legal suspense featuring Dismas Hardy and his daughter, Rebecca, now grown up and an associate in Hardyâ‚¬s law firm.

Late one night, a teenage African American foster child named Tanya Paulson plummets to her death from the overpass above San Franciscoâ‚¬s Stockton tunnel. But did she fallâ‚¬Â¦or was she pushed?

Rushing to produce a convictable suspect in the glare of the media spotlight, homicide inspectors focus their attention on a naÂ¯ve young man named Greg Treadway. Greg is a middle school teacher and he volunteers as a Special Advocate for foster children. At first, the only thing connecting him to Tanyaâ‚¬s death is the fact that they shared a meal earlier that night. But soon enough, elements of that story seem to fall apartâ‚¬Â¦and Hardyâ‚¬s daughter, Rebecca, finds herself drawn into the young manâ‚¬s defense.

By the time Gregâ‚¬s murder trial gets underway, Dismas and Rebecca have unearthed several other theories about the crime: a missing stepfather whoâ‚¬d sexually assaulted her; a roommate who ran a call girl service; a psychologically unstable birth mother; and a mysterious homeless man who may have had dealings with Tanya. Or Greg Treadway himself, who is perhaps not all that he first appeared. But how will they get these theories in front of a jury? And if they can, what price will they have to pay?

With signature suspense and intricate plotting, The Fall puts Dismas Hardy and his only daughter in the middle of one of John Lescroartâ‚¬s most complex and thrilling cases yet.
