Hello Fellow Readers!
I am more than excited about the release of my third legal thriller ABOUT MURDER ON THE DOWN LOW!
In MURDER ONTHE DOWN LOW, A brazen gunman is targeting prominent African-American men on the streets of L.A. The victims are all quintessential family men. Well-educated. Attractive. Successful. But appearances can be deceiving. When the baffling murders are linked to a high-profile lawsuit, a tenacious female detective soon exposes a scandalous tale of lust, lies and vengeance.

Gwen Richardson, CushCity.com
"Murder on the Down Low is an entertaining read, filled with heart-pumping suspense. Pamela Samuels-Young weaves a sitting-on-the-edge of your seat plot that keeps you guessing and turning the pages!"
—Best-selling Author
Victoria Christopher Murray, The Ex Files
“Right up to the twisted and unexpected slam-bang ending, Murder on the Down Low will keep you teetering precariously on the edge of your seat the whole way through.”
—The Book Club Queen
My first two legal thrillers EVERY REASONABLE DOUBT (FEBRUARY 2006) and IN FIRM PURSUIT, are both Essence magazine best-sellers! The absence of female and African-American attorneys depicted in mainstream legal fiction prompted me to write my first legal suspense novel, despite a busy career as a lawyer. I still practice employment law and write a legal columnist for Global Woman magazine.

ABOUT IN FIRM PURSUIT, AN ESSENCE MAGAZINE BESTSELLER!
Poised for a coveted partnership at a prominent L.A. law firm, Vernetta Henderson takes on what appears to be an open-and-shut case of sexual harassment. Soon, troubling revelations about the case emerge, leading the savvy L.A. attorney to uncover a far-reaching conspiracy of corporate greed, deceit and violence. To make matters worse, Vernetta must go up against a smooth-talking litigator who’s determined to beat her at trial. A pretentious second-year associate assigned to help Vernetta with the case has her own agenda and adds even more stress to the mix. On the home front, Vernetta’s husband could find himself facing charges of sexual harassment if his pretty young assistant has her way. With both her private and professional lives spiraling dangerously out of control, Vernetta quickly discovers what really matters most — and how far she’ll go to protect the people she loves.
