While in law school, he had a brief affair with the female judge who is now hearing the case. She should have recused herself, but believed no one knew about their secret. The setting is San Francisco in the early 1970's during the Calieornia Malpractice Insurance Crisis In addition, the lives of the three main characters are described in separate chapters interspersed throughout the book, following the growth and development of the three, including explicit description of their sexual lives. The attorney wins a large jury award, then beds his beautiful associate.

It also is up-to-date in describing a character who conforms to the latest research reports, i.e., that female sexual drive is just as strong as the male.
