DescriptionDavid Nash, defense attorney. The papers call him the Ice Man - cool, unruffled, practically invincible in the courtroom. Most of the clients he defends are guilty. A few may even be monsters. Suddenly the Ice Man is assailed by doubts and unanswerable questions. What is the cost of each victory, each rapist or murderer set free - to society and to Nash's soul? Then along comes a case that may be Nash's redemption. A rising lawyer and family man is accused of the brutal murder of an undercover vice cop. Finally, a client whose innocence he can believe in. But as the case moves toward trial, new doubts grip him: What is truth and what is carefully fabricated falsehood? Is Nash, a master at handling juries, being manipulated himself? And by whom? By the time Nash's perfect case is finished, the questions become a matter of life and death.
