Breach of Trust - D.W Buffa


Breach of Trust
By D.W. Buffa

In yet another fast-paced thriller by Buffa, our hero Joseph Antonelli is plunged into yet another intriguingly complicated case, where things are not always what they seem and surprises lurk round every corner.

At the heart of the plot is a white house conspiracy by the president of the United States and his aides to oust the vice president of the United States, so that they might reappoint someone whose views concur with theirs more closely, thus effectively bestowing upon themselves absolute control of the country. Scandals, lies, and media gimmicks abound, in a game where the stakes are so high, neither side can afford to lose. On one side is the president and the full might of the White House, on the other is Joseph Antonelli and the vice president.

Compared to most of Buffa’s other works, this volume contains considerably fewer courtroom scenes. As such, it serves up a treat for those who were previously turned off by the amount of legal jargon in Buffa’s other books. As for those who follow the series for the courtroom action, there is still enough to keep them satisfied. All in all, this is another not-to-be-missed installment from the Joseph Antonelli series.

Note: All of Buffa’s works are stand-alones, and no prior knowledge of the series is necessary to derive full satisfaction from this book.
