Grand Jury

Grand jurors Susan Linwood and David Clark have no idea what theyƒ??re getting into when they decide to help two defendants indicted by their grand jury. What they think is a frameup involving Chinatown rivals turns out to have far wider implications, and to be far more sinister ƒ?? and deadly.

Grand juries are secret proceedings: revealing what goes on in a grand jury is a crime. Risking jail time, grand jurors Susan Linwood and David Clark join up to exonerate elderly Martin and Meiling Eng indicted by their fellow jurors on the heroin-smuggling charges put before them by prosecutor Dan Mahoney.

Their investigation plunges them into intrigue and danger that takes them from the heart of New Yorkƒ??s Chinatown to a Hong Kong in turmoil about the coming transition from British to Chinese control and then to the Wild West atmosphere of Chinaƒ??s Guangdong Province.

Returning to New York, they find themselves in danger of being prosecuted for their investigation and embroiled in a case being built by the DAƒ??s Official Corruption Unit. Guided by defense attorneys Michael Ryan and Kassia Miller (Reasonable Doubt), they ally themselves with Mahoney and Official Corruption to uncover the unexpected truth about the Engs.
