It's 1981 in Dallas and Stan decides to throw a Christmas party at his home as a way of saying thanks to the clients who have sustained him during his first tumultuous year in the practice of law. As Stan's luck would have it, an ice storm hits Dallas and a client slips on Stan's icy walkway causing him to suffer a massive coronary. Stan is blamed for his client's untimely death and must shield himself from the wrath of the grieving widow.

In the meantime, Stan is asked to defend a young college student charged with murdering her newborn child. Knowing he lacks the experience for such an undertaking, he enlists his
former criminal law professor to be "Second Chair." What he doesn't know is the professor, who everyone calls "Snake" is a drunk and a womanizer.

Industry Reviews

"Appealing characters and lively dialogue, especially in the courtroom, make this an easy, entertaining read."--Publishers Weekly

"Like Undaunted and Brash Endeavor, Second Chair takes the reader for the ride of their life. Manchee's command of the justice system added to his experiences in court and with clients makes for a good read." --Barbara Quigley --Norman Transcript

"Manchee, an attorney, spins a good plot, playing out the scenes slowly so the reader is caught in the what-comes-next trap. Richly textured with a wonderful atmosphere, the novel shows Manchee as a smooth, polished master of the mystery form." --The Book Reader
