The Last Appeal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798258823663)

Superior, Wisconsin, 1915. On the icy shores of Lake Superior, the Wachsmann dairy empire stands as a beacon of stability. But as Europe drifts toward the Great War, a local tragedy threatens to destroy the family forever.
When a brilliant geneticist is found stabbed to death in the Wachsmann barn, the evidence is surgical and chilling. Cole Wachsmann is one of only three people with a key to the locked stall--Cole himself, the victim and the Wachsmann veterinarian, Zach Vanderwelt. In a heartbreaking turn, Zach's unwavering honesty becomes a noose around Cole's neck.

With the sudden death of their legendary attorney, the defense falls to the untested Phineas "Finn" Pittman. A novice who has never faced a hanging judge, Finn must navigate a community fueled by "spy fever" and a prosecution convinced that Cole killed to protect a "Genetic Goldmine."
