Things only get worse when two FBI agents let him in on a chilling piece of evidence found in Van Gogh's apartment: a beautiful woman's headshot, with Morrisey's name and address on the back. It isn't long before Morrissey realizes that he's been sent a message from beyond the grave. The tightly wrapped Van Gogh case begins to unravel with every new detail Jimmy uncovers, which could mean that a murderer is still at large. But finding out the truth means taking on a client who technically doesn't exist, leaving Jimmy Morrissey as A Defense for the Dead.Read More
