For the first time in its 125-year history, the American Bar Association, through the Criminal Justice Section, has published a work of fiction, The Shadow of Justice. The story provides a realistic view of the inner workings of the criminal justice system through the eyes of protagonist Circuit Court Judge Clark Addison - as seen by noted Miami criminal defense attorney Milton Hirsch. Awakened one morning and informed that one of his oldest friends has shot and killed his family and himself, Judge Addison has little time to react. Soon after, he is on the bench, facing another of his oldest friends, Jack Sheridan, now a defense attorney trying a case in Addison's court. Over the course of the next week, Addison describes his trial and, in flashbacks, traces his intertwined relationships in a search for meaning, a search for truth, and a search for justice. This novel is the first in a series, Great Stories by Great Lawyers, to be published by the ABA. The series will feature new novels by the people who know best how the legal system really works: practicing lawyers and judges.
