Sinopse

The Plea is a thrilling conclusion to Joe Kavinsky?s role in capturing and bringing to justice a gang of drug smugglers terrorizing the Upper Midwest with drugs and death.Focusing on how drugs beget terrorism, the story features a pretty young Muslim woman who was the drug lord?s companion planning terrorism at a giant shopping mall. She claims she?s innocent and being denied a plea bargain promised by federal and local authorities by helping them capture the drug lord. However, her promise is ignored and she?s locked up without charges and goes through a very complex hearing before a judge who is considered biased, despite Joe?s efforts for fairness in her behalf. A 'shady' lawyer is suspected of being paid off by the Taliban if she?s deported back to them. But before the judge makes a decision, Kavinsky also becomes involved in the capture of another woman...the killer of Joe?s police partner who also helped to round up the terrorists. All this poses the questions: How will the mistreated woman prisoner be judged? Who?s the bad attorney? And who?s the cop killer? The way this story unfolds...there are some very exciting and surprising answers!
