Chase, the Bad Baby (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781505424744)

John Ellsworth was a practicing attorney who defended white collar crimes and criminal investigations and prosecutions by the federal government. Tax crimes were a specialty and John appeared in court on these cases and in the audit pre-indictment stages nationwide. For many years John defended criminal cases of the usual flavor too, from shoplifting to first degree murder. He has been lead counsel on death penalty cases and has never lost a client to the execution chamber. Today John believes in self-publication. "I wrote a script for a Hollywood movie and it bounced around the studios for three years while other people talked and discussed and opined. After three years there was still no movie, so I decided to start writing nothing but novels and to self-publish so there would be no middlemen between my writing and my readers." The first book, a legal thriller titled The Defendants was first up to the plate. Now John has published five more legal thrillers: 1. The Defendants 2. Beyond a Reasonable Death 3. Attorney at Large 4. Chase, the Bad Baby 5. Defending Turquoise 6. The Mental Case John writes for your enjoyment. "More than anything, I love to read a review of one of my books where someone has had a good experience because of something I created out of thin air. I love my readers and want them to love me back--through my books, of course." Writing-reading is a two-way street, especially with readers of legal thrillers, who happen to be people who are very bright, well-read, and won't let you get away with inaccuracies. So you better be up on your game and get it right the first time around. Today John lives in Arizona with his wife and dogs and guinea pigs. He rescues guinea pigs that would otherwise be put down and spends Saturdays cleaning cages and holding the little animals so they know they're loved. "It's a full, happy life for all of us."
