What would you do if you had to defend a profoundly unpopular person? This is the candid, first-person account of an ordinary public defender who by chance is assigned to represent the lead suspect in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing trial. Taking readers behind the scenes of a terrorism trial, the book also explores the meaning of justice and highlights the disturbing fact that the self-confessed mastermind of the 1993 and 2001 attacks, who has been in U.S. custody since 2003, has never been brought to trial.
