February 18, 1993. This day saw the publication of Hard Evidence. It was John Lescroat's third novel about California D.A. Dismas Hardy. Kirkus Review said: "As in Presumed Innocent, the courtroom battles, once they're
joined, are so keen that you almost forget there's a mystery too. But
Lescroart's laid-back, soft-shoe approach to legal intrigue is all his
own."
