Product Description
2011 Shamus Award Finalist for Best First Novel
Hotshot New York criminal defense lawyer Kevin Corvelli was rolling. He had all the right connectionsto get way ahead. Guilty? Innocent? It didn't matter so long as he won, got in the papers, and got paid. That's until he loses---and loses big---whena client, whowas convicted and then killed in jail, is later proven innocent. The media has a field day plasteringCorvelli's face all over Manhattan,so Corvelli, disgraced and in a professional free fall, bolts for Hawaii.

Committed tobeing alawyer if only becauseof the knee-buckling debts he accumulated becoming one in the first place, he sets up shop in paradise and swears tohandle only misdemeanors this time around---no felonies, no murders, no media attention, no high stakes, no real responsibility. But his first case turns out to be exactly that: law student Joseph Gianforte, Jr.,is accusedof chasing his ex-girlfriend to Hawaii and killing her.He's innocent, same as Corvelli's last case, only this time Corvelli knows it, and with that knowledge comes the chilling realization that the killer is still out there with plenty of incentive to make sure that any proof of Gianforte's innocence doesn't go any further than the three of them.

Douglas Corleone's One Man's Paradise, the winner of the Minotaur Books/Mystery Writers of America First Crime Novel Competition, is a gripping story of failure and the search for redemption, and it marks thestellar debut of an exciting new crime-writing voice.
