Title: Sex crimes
First published: 1996
Description: It's New Year's Eve when Christine Chandler first picks up Scott DeSalvo, a younger man, for what she tells herself is just a one-night stand. Ten months later she stands accused of a crime so hideous that the tabloids have dubbed her the "Boston Fury". To her friends and colleagues, Christine is the embodiment of self-discipline. Harvard educated, a top-flight lawyer, thirty-eight, and relentlessly single, she likes to think she's in total control.

But as Christine describes the series of sexual encounters that led to the night in question, her startling poise is gradually betrayed by newspaper clips, police reports, and the depositions of those who thought they knew her.
