Resumen del Editor

When 16-year-old Hannah Sheraton is arrested for the murder of her stepgrandfather, the chief justice of the California Supreme court, her distraught mother turns to her old college roommate, Josie Baylor-Bates, for help. Josie, once a hot-shot criminal defense attorney, left the fast track behind for a small practice in Hermosa Beach, California.

But Hannah Sheraton intrigues her and, when the girl is charged as an adult, Josie cannot turn her back. But the deeper she digs the more Josie realizes that politics, the law, and family relationships create a combustible and dangerous situation.

When the horrible truth is uncovered it can save Hannah Sheraton or destroy them both.

Good Book.

Good Book. Too much cussing. No need for blasphemy. Otherwise I enjoyed it. Thank you

I was up all night!

I couldn’t put it down! I’m in love with Josie Bates. I’ve been in a few legal situations and I wish she was available to represent me! Yes, I realize this is a work of fiction but I cannot help but wish the very best for Hannah’s future, Lol! I’m going to take a nap now because I spent the night reading this book.

DNF

Terrible narration. I believe I would have enjoyed the story but the narration was so overly dramatic I could not finish.

Great read

Grabs your interest right from the beginning and keeps your interest until the last sentence. Read this book you won't be sorry.

WOAHHHHHHH, I didn't see that coming

Talk about a plot twist, holy moly!!! Absolutely captivating story and also treacherous. Makes you wanna go in and shoot the bad guys and then give high 5's to the one(s) who took care of buisness! tragic that there are creeps and perverts out there, but wow, can Ms Rebecca and Ann Marie capture the dialogue, it's like the narrator read it first and done her homework and absolutely captured Ms Rebecca's intentions! Absolutely stunning!

I couldn’t stop listening.

Very well written and those who provided the audio kept the mystic going throughout the book.

Histrionics “R” Us

Plot okay, storytelling very highly emotional and quite overwrought. Or maybe because the performance was so completely Over Acted, I just assign the story as super emotional. I dealt with the gut wrenching constantly close to tears dialog of female characters by adjusting the playback speed to 1.25 unless Hannah had dialog, during which I had to speed up to 1.30 to suppress my eye rolling reflex adequately. I only recommend if you can handle over the top emotional performance of a just okay legal procedural.

Narrated for second graders...

The story was good but I had to increase the speed to get through the overly dramatic, almost whining narration...😳

Legal and psychological thriller

I loved this book with its twists and turns. The narrator was exceptional in her deliverance of the story. I would recommend this book for mystery enthusiasts. The hostile witness was a surprise .

Narrator too much

Good story could barely listen. Not everything has to be soooo dramatic and the raise in her inflections were just too much.
