Bodily Harm opens with a big win for David Sloane and his new partner Tom Pendergrass in a malpractice case centered on the death of a young child. But on the heels of this seeming victory an unlikely character--toy designer Kyle Horgan-- comes forward to tell Sloane that hes gotten it all wrong: Horgans the one whos truly responsible for the little boys death and possibly others--not the pediatrician Sloane has just proven guilty.
Ordinarily Sloane might have dismissed such a person as a crackpot but something about this case has always troubled him--something that he couldnt quite pinpoint. When Sloane tries to follow up with Horgan he finds the mans apartment a shambles-- ransacked by unknown perpetrators. Horgan has vanished without a trace. Together with his longtime investigative partner Charles Jenkins Sloane reexamines his clients sons death and digs deeper into Horgans claims forcing him to enter the billion-dollar cutthroat toy industry. As Sloane gets closer to the truth he trips a wire that leads to a shocking chain of events that nearly destroys him.
To get to the bottom of it all and find justice for the families harmed Sloane must keep in check his overwhelming desire for revenge. Full of nail-bitingly tense action scenes as well as edge-of-your-seat courtroom drama Bodily Harm finds Robert Dugoni at the very top of his game.
