An Almost Life

If you think the law is a serious business, you haven't met Mike Samuels. Here's a lawyer who wonders what possessed his clients to hire him in the first place, and starts every trial expecting to be tapped on the shoulder and told to hand in his briefcase and tie. It s a viewpoint with which his ex-wife concurs, his kids dissent, and his girlfriend could go either way. His best friend Dan understands him completely, which worries Mike no end. But it's show time or crunch time or time to hit the panic button, depending on your point of view, as Mike prepares for the biggest case of his career. His client has, for reasons Mike cannot fathom, placed her future completely in his hands. Standing in their way is defense lawyer Harry LeCount, the crew cut Prince of Darkness. Has this Almost Life been a complete waste of time or has Mike actually learned a thing or two along the way? Like it or not, Mike Samuels is about to find out.
