Description:
<DIV><B>Tales that take you behind the scenes of a powerful New York law firm, from the <I>New York Times</I>&ndash;bestselling author of <I>The Partners</I>.</B><BR /><BR /> Ambition, jealousy, desire, hatred, deceit&mdash;they&rsquo;re all there inside the Wall Street law offices of Tower, Tilney &amp; Webb, the setting for these interwoven stories set in the 1960s from Louis Auchincloss, who practiced law while also writing acclaimed and bestselling fiction.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> Senior partner Clitus Tilney is not about to let a detestable, hard-drinking partner make a mockery of all he&rsquo;s worked for. Harry Reilley is a clerk who pines for Tilney&rsquo;s daughter. Jake Platt is an associate willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, including setting a rival up for failure. Rutherford Tower struggles with the fact that he owes his position with the firm to nepotism and not hard work. And then there&rsquo;s Mrs. Abercrombie, who&rsquo;s waiting for her sixty-fifth birthday, when she plans to retire&mdash;and get her revenge.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> These twelve linked stories capture the struggles, rivalries, victories, disappointments, and compromises in the day-to-day lives of lawyers, and a portrait of professional men and women in mid-century New York.</DIV>
