Eclipse

Damon Pierce is in a slump. Though he is a successful California lawyer, his wife has just left him, and his work often leaves him feeling empty. Then, Damon is contacted by a woman he once loved, Marissa Okari, whose husband, an African freedom fighter, is on trial for murder. Bobby Okari is strongly opposed to the exploitation of his homeland in the name of oil, and is working to get PetroGlobal, an American oil company, out of his country; however,when his own corrupt government brings him up on the charge of murdering three PetroGlobal workers, he puts his life in Damon's hands. Gripping and wildly intense, "Eclipse" is acclaimed author Richard North Patterson at his very best.
