Author Eric Matheny Announces Signing Event at Local Weston Starbucks

    FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, October 25, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Eric Matheny announced today that he will be at the Starbucks in Weston, FL on Sunday, November 8th from 4-6pm to discuss and sign copies of his latest legal thriller The Victim.

Eric is a criminal defense attorney that lives in Weston, FL. He has handled everything from DUI to murder. Eric writes crime fiction, drawing from his experience working in the legal system.

His latest novel The Victim tells the story of Anton Mackey, a criminal defense attorney in Miami whose life was altered drastically at the age of 21 when his decision to get behind the wheel despite being in no condition to drive claimed the lives of two people. When Daniella Avery, the beautiful wife of a man accused of a heinous act of domestic violence, comes into Anton's office seeking his services, Anton thinks he's landed a great case with a great fee. But when he succumbs to temptation, he realizes that Daniella is a figure from his past.

Anton finds himself caught between the possibility of being exposed and the fact that his client - Daniella's husband - may be an innocent pawn in the victim's attempt to carry out her revenge against Anton. As Anton struggles to balance defending his client while concealing the secret he has sought to forget, he uncovers the truth behind what really happened on that highway eleven years earlier.

BestThrillers.com calls The Victim, "a staggeringly well-crafted mystery...you'll hear your own heart thumping loudly as Anton begins to lift the veil on his curious client."

Michael A. Draper says, "[Anton] Mackey is a character who could be taken from one of John Grisham's excellent novels...It's a thrill to find a new author who stands out and Eric Matheny is an author with a bright future."

If you are a fan of John Grisham, David Baldacci, and Harlan Coben, The Victim may be your kind of novel.

The Starbucks is located at 310 Indian Trace, Weston, FL 33326. Copies of The Victim will be available for sale at the signing event. However, personal copies may be brought for signatures as well.
