Levine, Paul: - BESTSELLING AUTHOR PAUL LEVINE The author of twenty-two novels, Paul Levine won the John D. MacDonald Fiction Award and has been nominated for the Edgar, Macavity, International Thriller, Shamus, and James Thurber prizes. The inspiration for Impact was the author's question: How would you fix a case at the U.S. Supreme Court? The answer: own a law clerk who can persuade his or her justice to swing to the other side. And if not persuade, then extort. If justices are the sorcerers, Levine reasoned, their law clerks are the sorcerers' apprentices. A former trial lawyer, he also wrote twenty episodes of the CBS military drama JAG and co-created the Supreme Court drama First Monday starring James Garner and Joe Mantegna. The international bestseller, To Speak for the Dead, was his first novel and introduced readers to linebacker-turned-lawyer Jake Lassiter. Bum Rap was an Amazon Number One Bestseller. He is also the author of the critically acclaimed Solomon vs. Lord series of legal capers. His latest book is Cheater's Game, which digs deep into the college admissions scandal. He divides his time between Santa Barbara and Miami.
