Ex-cop, with a brand new law license, Jimmy O'Brien has been warned. Get your client to plead guilty or else . . . In the exciting and fast-paced novel, Six to Five Against, the time is pre-Watergate, 1972, the setting is the gritty suburb of Los Angeles, Downey, and the Mob is heavy into politics. A prominent state senator's gorgeous assistant has been murdered and within hours the cops have arrested a Mexican gardener. Jimmy O'Brien is ordered to represent him at the arraignment. The DA's case is slam-dunk. It's all wrapped up nice and tight. Maybe a little too tight. Why was the girl really killed? Did she discover the secret truth about the senator's powerful backers?
