Book Description
================
Brad Meltzer's first novel, The Tenth Justice, was an instant New York 
Times bestseller when published as the launch title of Rob Weisbach 
Books. At the youthful age of 27, Meltzer was the youngest novelist 
on bestseller lists across the country. Paperback rights to the book 
were sold at auction to Warner Books for a seven-figure sum, and the 
movie rights were optioned by Fox 2000. Meltzer even flirted with Hollywood 
stardom, playing himself as an extra in Woody Allen's upcoming film.

One year later, 28-year-old Meltzer has written his much anticipated 
second novel, Dead Even, an energetic legal thriller that pits husband 
against wife in a shocking catch-22 situation. Following a six-month 
stint of unemployment, Sara Tate is eager to relaunch her career in 
the New York district attorney's office. However, when budget cutbacks 
are announced, the last hired is the first fired, and Sara's job is 
in jeopardy. Determined to keep her job in the DA's office, Sara is 
coerced by colleagues to take a case that will keep her in trial for 
months. The one thing that she doesn't know is that the case -- intended 
for a senior staffer -- is not what it appears to be: an apparently 
routine burglary hides a deadly conspiracy.

Meanwhile, Sara's husband, Jared, a defense attorney, has been warned 
by his firm's superiors that he needs to bring in new clients or he 
won't make partner. With this need for new clients, he jumps at the 
opportunity to take a case defending a wealthy new client. But soon 
Jared discovers that he's been set up. This wealthy new client is the 
same one Sara is set to prosecute. They both face the ultimate peril: 
Win the case at all costs or the other will die.
