Karma Lawyer Nigel Lesmoir-Gordon

Could you kill your wife after you've put so many others in jail for the same crime? When Maitland Fairweather, a rich and successful criminal lawyer, discovers his beloved wife is cheating on him, he decides to do just that - and hires an all-girl hit team to accomplish the dirty deed. Secretly, Maitland harbours the thought that one day, he will be caught and tried for murder so prepares for his anticipated incarceration by morphing into the personality of a psychopath. His fears are founded when the Detective in charge of the case becomes suspicious when he sees Maitland enjoying life too much, too soon. Despite Maitland's evil streak, he has a conscience. He fights cases and entertains new clients, clients like Mary, a scientist whose company develops scalar-electromagnetic technology that can save lives - or destroy them. Maitland falls for Mary as they share his Utopian vision and spiritual revelations with the aid of psychedelic mushrooms. But then, Karma's a bitch when you live by the law, and none more so than in Maitland's case, particularly when one of the all-girl hit squad returns to blackmail him.
