Robert Ellis: CITY OF FIRE, Chapter 14


LAPD Headquarters, Downtown LA, Late Night ...
 
Big-time defense attorney, Buddy Paladino, signs on to defend James Brant, who stands accused of his wife’s horrific murder. Lena worries because she knows Paladino is smart. No matter how good a case may seem on paper to the prosecution, Paladino is a genius at finding the loose end, unravelling it before a jury, and making everyone look like a fool. Paladino has spoken to Brant. All are shocked, if not suspicious, when they agree to a polygraph test. Lena and Novak guess that Brant thinks he can beat it, and rush to get it done before anyone changes their mind.
