Legal Asylum is the latest novel by Paul Goldstein, author of Secret Justice. It is a satiric tale of the lengths an ambitious law school dean, Elspeth Flowers, will go to in order to secure her school into the top 5 of the US News and World Report annual ranking of the nation’s best law schools. Success means securing a spot in history as no state law school has ever made it to the top, but at what cost to Dean Flowers, to her somewhat bumbling but well intentioned assistant dean, Jimmy Fleenor, and to the future of the university itself?
