On the surface, Rachel Marin is an ordinary single mother; on the inside, she’s a fierce, brilliant vigilante. After an unspeakable crime shatters her life, she changes her identity and moves to a small town in Illinois, hoping to spare her children from further trauma...or worse. But crime follows her everywhere. When the former mayor winds up dead, Rachel can’t help but get involved. Where local detectives see suicide, she sees murder. They resent her for butting in - especially since she’s always one step ahead. But her investigative genius may be her undoing.

Vengence will be theirs! The Bergman-Deketomis Law Firm built their powerhouse legal team fully understanding that their opponents rarely play by the rules, but the gruesome murder of one of their senior partners has placed them on a playing field where there are no rules. They are caught up in a way that has to be won outside of a courtroom. One of America's largest weapons manufacturers has them in its crosshairs, and a negotiated settlement is not an option. Sometimes the pursuit of justice isn't enough. Sometimes the law of vengeance is the only path.

Cal Claxton is determined to reinvent himself as a small-town lawyer in the aftermath of his wife's suicide. Once a hard-charging Los Angeles prosecutor, he now lives in solitude in an old farmhouse overlooking Oregon's wine country. When a scruffy, tattooed kid shows up asking for help in solving a cold case - that of his mother's murder - Cal wants to say no. Times are tough, and he's no private eye, anyway. But the kid, who calls himself Picasso, has ridden a bicycle in the rain all the way from Portland, and something about his determination touches Cal.

Ingrid DiLaurio lives in Riversedge, New York, four express train stops from Manhattan. Don’t be fooled: with its tree-lined Main Street, and quaint ambiance, Riversedge is only impersonating a small town. While it’s a place small enough for everyone to know each other’s secrets, few do. The town revolves around the prestigious Riversedge Law Club, where deals are made and cases are resolved and where Ingrid DiLaurio—a former lawyer turned nationally recognized podcast host—has never once been made to feel welcome.

Outstanding legal thriller!
I follow Audible Listener Shelley (Raleigh, NC) (1) because our fiction preferences are similar and (2) because she finds and reviews wonderful novels that I would not likely find. If you are interested in the mystery/thriller genre you should consider following Shelley and giving her the helpful votes she richly deserves. ACTS OF OMISSION by James S Bostwick is the most recent find by Shelley.
This novel is easily the best legal thriller I have read in years. I awarded John Grisham's recent release The Guardians 5 stars. ACTS OF OMISSION is a much better legal thriller than The Guardians, but 5 stars are the maximum I can award it. Read Shelley's excellent review for more information. By the way, the narration is also outstanding.
This is the first book by James S Bostwick. Who is he? Upon investigating I find that he is a septuagenarian California lawyer so we likely should not expect many more releases from him. He is also one of the top civil lawyers in the US and he heads his own (large) law firm.
Very highly recommended!

Great story with one exception.
I really enjoyed the story and the twists and turns that ensued, and it was nice not to hear any cursing or vulgarity. However, the details regarding Matt’s sexual encounters were not necessarily, and for me, disappointing, especially when they didn’t lead to a relationship with his partner. Not to spoil anything, it was nice that the story ended on an encouraging note.

As good as other reviewers have said
Thoroughly enjoyable - an unequivocal 5star! Hope to see (hear) more from the writer. Why do I have to add
more words to get this review recorded? Others have covered plot, characters, etc. Can I go now?

Awesome debut novel
Acts Of Omission is an excellent legal novel with enough suspense to keep you guessing what will happen next. Obviously either James Bostwick is a lawyer and knows quite a lot about serious injuries or has done tons of research. Hopefully this is just the beginning of a long writing career. Looking forward to his next novel
Roger Wayne did a great job narrating. That really added to the suspense
