Bonds

Bob Abramson and his partner, Prof. Marcus George, have been together for more than 30 years, and over that period they have evolved along with American society. From the Back Bay of Boston to the sunny oceanfront of San Diego, they have found themselves thrown into four different murder invevstigations. Bob is an attorney who began his career with the San Diego District Attorney's office, but after his investigations implicated the DA and his wife, he went into private practice. Now he is about to take a job as the chief Assistant DA under a new, untested DA-a man determined to make his mark. But as he prepares to shutter his successful private practice to over, he must first defend one of his closest friends against an unexpected, questionable murder charge, brought by his soon-to-be boss. It's a case that draws him deeply into the political cauldron of the United States military establishment during the waning days of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
