Without Fear or Favor: A Novel
Gallery Books / Simon & Schuster, August 2017
In the twenty-ninth novel in the New York Times bestselling Karp-Ciampi series featuring “the best fictional prosecuting attorney in literature” (Mark Lane, #1 New York Times bestselling author), Butch Karp and his wife Marlene Ciampi must stop a radical organization of armed militants bent on the cold-blooded murder of uniformed on-duty police officers.
When a cop shoots down the son of a respected inner-city Baptist preacher, the community rises up in anger and demands to have the officer prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. But there’s something more than a call for justice at work here: a plot to bring down the city’s police force through a conspiracy so vast and malicious only Butch Karp and his band of truth-seekers can untangle it.
Full of Tanenbaum’s signature page turning intense action and heart pounding suspense from “one hell of a writer” (New York Post), Without Fear or Favor will keep you guessing until the final scene.

Reviews:
PRAISE FOR ROBERT TANENBAUM'S LEGAL THRILLERS
“Butch [Karp] is doing his courtroom dance, making fools of the smug politicians he believes were behind the murder. Tanenbaum shines in these positively balletic moments...[a] reliable thriller.” (Booklist)
"Those outraged by how the government handled the 2012 debacle in Benghazi will find a lot to like." (Publishers Weekly)
“Readers will find a well-constructed novel, including solid courtroom scenes. Prosecutor Butch Karp…is a talented and likable hero…conservatives will likely love the tone of [Fatal Conceit].” (Kirkus)
“ONE HELL OF A WRITER.” (New York Post)
“Butch Karp is the best fictional prosecuting attorney in literature. . . . Tanenbaum is a phenomenal attorney and a remarkable storyteller: It is almost unfair to the rest of us. . . . Outrage grabs you at the outset and astonishes at each page . . . Riveting.” (#1 New York Times bestselling author Mark Lane)
