Lethal Lawyers by Dale Manolakas
About Lethal Lawyers by Dale Manolakas:
TOP 100 LEGAL THRILLER! ~~eBOOK ONLY $3.99 & PAPERBACK AT COST~~
Infighting, carnage, and sexual favors are the real rule of law at the Los Angeles law firm of Thorne & Chase! Complex characters immerse you in the cutthroat culture of big money law firms—firms where partners and associates must win at all costs. They cannibalize each other battling for money, power, love, clients, and ultimately their own survival. With blue-collar idealism and onerous student loans, first-year associate Sophia Christopoulos covets the firm’s money and power. But her new friendships, love, and success come with the shocking price of disillusionment, murder, and betrayal. When Sophia is hurled into a murder investigation, she is torn between ethics and firm politics, as well as love and truth. Fighting to save her career and life, she becomes the star witness—and then a target.
5-STAR REVIEWS! “Warning – don’t start reading until you have time!” “Author Dale E. Manolakas delivers with fully-realized characters who explode off the page. Visceral. Sensual. Alive. Highly recommended.” “A strong, scathingly entertaining commentary on the Los Angeles legal community. Keeps the reader guessing until the end.” “Wow! Powerful look into the law business!”
FROM THE AUTHOR
Lethal Lawyers is unique because of its authenticity and candid revelations. Although fictionalized, the many characters and legal incidences are based on actual persons, cases, and events in the practice of big law firm litigation in Los Angeles. Extensive experience and interviews, both of senior management and at the associate level, insured its accuracy, legitimacy, and realism.

Author Bio:
TOP 100 AMAZON BEST SELLER’S RANK FOR MULTIPLE BOOKS
After a life time of writing poetry, books, nonfiction, and legal documents, it was author Ray Bradbury’s friendship and encouragement that finally inspired Dale E. Manolakas to pursue writing as a career. He taught her that the characters wrote the book–she didn’t. Raised just outside Los Angeles by a surgeon father and a homemaker-author mother, Dale E. Manolakas had always aspired to an acting career, but also had to make a living.
Dale E. Manolakas earned her B.A. from the University of California at Los Angeles, and M.A., M.S., Ph.D. and J.D. degrees from the University of Southern California. She is a member of the California Bar, had the privilege of clerking for The Honorable Arthur L. Alarcón at the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, was a litigator in two major Los Angeles law firms, and a senior appellate attorney at the California Court of Appeals, as well as an Administrative Law Judge.
Before that she was a teacher, primarily at the high school, adult school, and university levels, and holds a public administrative services credential. In addition, she has pursued her passion for acting, primarily on the stage, but also in film and television. She is a member of both Actors’ Equity and SAG-AFTRA. She also has raised three very independent daughters and lives with her husband, a retired attorney, in an otherwise animal-free environment in California.

Author Bio:
The law of unintended consequences. Years ago, my son who was then in 6th grade, wrote a short story. I enjoyed it so much that I turned it into a novel. I then wrote a sequel at the request of the kids who read the original story.
In the sequel I named a character for a neighbor’s 9 year old girl and said she was boy crazy. When her mother read the story to her she cried. She hated boys. I felt badly and asked what I might write about to make her smile. She said the girl, Eloise, liked to fly in her dreams.
The next day I began Flying Girl, the first book of what would eventually be a 12 book serial called Egg and the Hameggattic Sisterhood. I never expected to publish my work. I kept writing because Eloise and other girls her age kept reading and enjoying the stories.

Who Killed September Falls?
About Who Killed September Falls?:
Dramatic, Compelling, Intense – A Story of Friendship, Betrayal and Murder
“Death might be unforgiving and brutal but nothing could erase my memories of September Falls.”
Written in the 1st person, the story unravels through the eyes of Arianne Tawnison, a journalist who never once imagined she would be investigating the grisly murder of her best friend, September Falls. Passionate, beautiful and fiery, she had been hailed as the next great artist and her sudden brutal murder sends the cost of her artwork escalating dramatically. Shocked and saddened to the core, Arianne can see only the controversial aspects of September’s life being reported in the news – the passionate and sometimes callous love affairs, the single-minded and almost bullish approach and the manipulative tactics to achieve all she wanted. They didn’t want to know about the loyal friend, her sense of humour or the compassionate side of her nature. A vibrant, unpredictable character – the media compared September to the brash, vivid strokes of her artwork.
Frustrated and deeply grieving, Arianne is shaken out of her numbed state when she receives a mysterious parcel, September’s precious journal posted to her only days before her death. Coded for secrecy, Arianne realises that September had been truly afraid for her life. Within the pages, she discovers a hidden life – a cat and mouse lifestyle and a lonely, isolated woman.
“Sometimes you stare truth in the face and it’s so horrible that the pain twists like a knife.”
Spurred on by her friend’s faith in her, Arianne travels to September’s home in the South of France meeting up with revered art agent Mark Adams. Although welcoming, Arianne senses he is not what he seems and that he is hiding something important from her. Then there was Gabe, a vibrantly attractive man and one that was used to keeping secrets. Did they know more about September’s death than they were letting on? Could she even trust them?
Her determined investigations reveal some unexpected and bitter truths about her best friend and she sadly realises that September’s whole life had been based on a myriad of secrets and lies. The revelations shock Arianne to the core and she struggles to make sense of their deep friendship as it fragments under the intensity of her investigation. As each new clue is discovered, Arianne’s own life is in deadly danger, someone is watching her from the shadows.
It’s a race to find the killer before the killer finds her.

Brailling For Wile
BRAILLING: Feeling the surface of a tile while your hand is in the bag in order to draw a blank or other specific letter. This is strictly forbidden. -from SCRABBLE’s Official Glossary
Brailling was something twelve-year-old Mattias Long learned to master during the games of Scrabble he used to play with his mother while they waited for his father, Wile, to close up the family restaurant. But now, one year after his father’s suicide, it’s Mattias who feels cheated. He hates his father. He hates him for leaving Mattias and his sister, Georgie, alone. He hates him for turning his mother into a young widow who hasn’t left the house in months. And he hates his father for leaving behind his stupid tree. Four of them are planted outside the restaurant, one for each family member, his father’s now casting the biggest shadow. Both literally and figuratively. That is until Mattias’s mother, no longer able to stand the sight of the tree, hires a local landscaper to remove it in the middle of the night. This seemingly unremarkable act soon sets in motion of series of events in the small Colorado ski town that leaves more than just young Mattias groping in the dark for answers.
Brailling For Wile is a unique novel told from multiple points of view about loss and the lengths some will go to heal the human heart. Ultimately, it is a story about lives being uprooted and what it takes to go on living even when everything in the world might be telling us it isn’t possible to.
