"The Pancho McMartin Legal Thrillers, set in Hawaii, are smart, witty, suspenseful page-turners... highly recommended."-Robert Westbrook author of the Howard Moon Deer MysteriesSome Honolulu lawyers called Pancho McMartin the best criminal defense attorney in the islands. He'd admit to being pretty damn good. But he was on a losing streak now-three guilty verdicts in a row-and his confidence was sinking fast. When one of his oldest friends, Giselle, was left comatose after surgery and her husband, Manny, pleaded with him to sue the doctors involved, Pancho couldn't find a way to avoid a new specialty: medical malpractice.But it wasn't long before the sudden death of one of the defendants-and a murder charge accusing Manny of being the killer-had Pancho back in the old familiar arena of fighting for his client's life, while at the same time seeking justice for the O.R. errors that had left Giselle in a permanent vegetative state.In Tropical Doubts, the third legal thriller from David Myles Robinson featuring colorful, fast-thinking Pancho McMartin, medical hijinks merge with murder as surprise twists build in this unpredictable courtroom drama."...Robinson's characters are finely delineated and credible, and his plot is solid and well crafted. Tropical Doubts: A Pancho McMartin Legal Thriller is most highly recommended." -Jack Magnus for Readers' Favorite"All the stars to this book!" -San Francisco Book Review"Readers won't believe how the story unfolds..." -Manhattan Book Review
Autorenporträt
David Myles Robinson has always had a passion for writing. During the late 1960's and early 1970's, while in college, Robinson worked as a free-lance writer for several magazines and was a staff writer for a weekly minority newspaper in Pasadena, California, called The Pasadena Eagle. However, as he himself admits, upon graduating from San Francisco State University, he decided against the 'starving writer' route and went to law school, at the University of San Francisco School of Law. It was there that he met his wife, Marcia Waldorf. After graduating from law school in 1975, the two moved to Honolulu, Hawaii and began practicing law. Robinson became a trial lawyer, specializing in personal injury and workers' compensation law. Waldorf eventually became a Circuit Court judge.Upon retiring in 2010, Robinson completed his first novel, Unplayable Lie. He has since published eight more novels, five of which are legal thrillers set in Honolulu: Tropical Lies, Tropical Judgments, Tropical Doubts, Tropical Deception, and Tropical Scandal. His other novels are The Pinochet Plot, Son of Saigon, and Rex, the Kid, the Wore, and the Scientist.Robinson has also published a book of short travel stories, Conga Line on the Amazon.Robinson and Waldorf divided their time between Honolulu and their second home in Taos, NM for seven years before finally deciding to see what it's like to be full-time mainlanders again. They now live in Taos, where Robinson can pursue his non-writing passions of golf, ski, and travel.
