Author Description

Peter Sharp is an attorney who lives on a boat, but doesn't even know how to start its engines. He also thinks he's a pretty good lawyer, but behind the scenes, his legal ward Suzi is really the brains behind his solving crimes and winning cases.If you think you can match wits with a little, 13-year old computer whiz, and find out who the guilty people really are, then you'll enjoy the Peter Sharp Legal Mysteries created by Gene Grossman, a former trial attorney who unlike Peter Sharp, really knows how to start his boat's engines.This is the first of Peter Sharp's Legal Adventures, and in it, Attorney Peter Sharp has been wrongfully suspended from the practice of law and thrown out of the house by his soon-to-be ex-wife, a newly appointed deputy district attorney. He’s now living in their back yard on an old, poorly wired, 40-foot Chris Craft cabin cruiser he’s restoring, that might burn up at any time.To make matters worse, after trying to help someone fill out some claim forms, he gets arrested for conspiracy to defraud an insurance company. His alleged co-conspirator, a man charged with murdering his own wife to be with a beautiful flight attendant, is about to discover that Peter is also seeing her while the man is out of town.As Peter fights to get his law license reinstated, he discovers the secrets behind two murders, a fatal plane crash, who framed him with the State Bar, and gets involved in a groundbreaking case of Negligent Nymphomania - all with the help of a computer genius - his legal ward Suzi, an adorable little Chinese girl.
