Protect and Defend (Kerry Kilcannon, Bk 2)


On a cold day in Jauary, President-elect Kerry Kilcannon takes the oath of office--and within days makes his first, most important move; appointing a new chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Kilcannon's choice is a female judge with a brilliant record. And a secret.
While the Senate spars over Caroline Master's nomination, an inflammatory abortion rights case is making its way toward the judge--and will explode intothe headlines. Suddenly, the most divisive issue in America turns the president's nomination into all-out war. And from Judge Masters to a conservative, war hero senator facing a crisis of conscience and a fifteen year old girl battling for her future, no one will be safe.
