About the Book

Under the hot lights at Philly's police headquarters, Darlene Dalton, an ingenue paralegal, is being interrogated for the murder of David L. Nusbaum, the attorney for whom she'd toiled . . . and lusted. Complicating matters are the facts that Nusbaum was married and White, while Darlene is African American and afflicted. Just two months earlier, the fresh-faced, eager young woman successfully interviewed for a paralegal job at Nusbaum's down-at-the-heels solo law practice. So how did such a promising start end so terribly? Did Darlene kill David? And if so, why? And now, will she take an even greater fall for her many concealed transgressions? . . . and also, for his? . . . A tale of power and submission; fear and facades; sadness and self-loathing. Rich in character and setting, The Secrets of Darlene Dalton is a not-so-typical legal whodunit sure to challenge and thrill.
