Eyes of a Child
A Novel
by Richard North Patterson
Review this book!
When Ricardo Arias is found dead with a gun in his mouth, it looks like a suicide but other evidence strongly suggests murder. Arias was involved in a bitter custody battle with his estranged wife, Terri Peralta, over their six-year-old daughter, Elena, whom Arias believed was being abused. Prominent San Francisco defense attorney Christopher Paget is charged with Arias' murder; it's Paget's son who is accused of abusing Elena, Paget's own political ambitions that would be damaged, and his alibi that is dangerously threadbare.

Media Reviews
"A miracle of agonizingly focused suspense....The trial is a tour de force that will keep you holding your breath for 200 pages....The adversarial nature of American criminal justice has never been more brilliantly dramatized."
