Suspicion of Innocence by Barbara Parker
Publisher: E-reads
About Suspicion of Innocence (from the publisher): Gail Connor and Anthony Quintana are a combustible mix on many levels. Passionately attracted to each other on a personal level, they are equally passionate defenders of their clients even when their interests don't always work in tandem. Set all this against the sultry background of a Miami that is riddled with crime and corruption, drowning in drugs, illegal immigrants and shady deals, simmering with a melting-pot clash of cultures and you have a recipe for highly entertaining, hotly explosive crime and justice.
In this first title in the "Suspicion" series, Gail Connor is a fast-rising attorney in a major law firm, about to make partner — until her life is derailed by the discovery of her sister's murdered body and the quick revelation that Gail is the prime suspect. Gail must fight for her life as she gets a first-hand look at the dark underside of the legal system.

Fellowship of Fear by Aaron Elkins
Publisher: E-reads
About Fellowship of Fear (from the publisher): When Oliver is offered a teaching fellowship at U.S. military bases in Germany, Sicily, Spain, and Holland, he wastes no time accepting. Stimulating courses to teach, a decent stipend, all expenses paid, plenty of interesting European travel … what's not to like?
It doesn't take him long to find out. On his first night, he is forced to fend off two desperate, black-clad men who have invaded his Heidelberg hotel room with intent to kill. And then there's the little matter of a few trivial details that the recruiting agency forgot to mention — such as the fact that the two previous holders of the fellowship both met with mysterious ends.
From there it's all downhill. Gideon finds himself the target in an unfamiliar game for which no one has bothered to give him the rules. What he does have, however, is his own considerable intellect and his remarkable forensic skills. He will need them, for he is playing for some fairly high stakes. The security of Western Europe …
And his own life.
