Publisher's summary

To defend her client, she must dig up a town’s darkest secrets.

Defense attorney Cass Leary thought she’d escaped her hometown for good. But after leaving her high-paying job in Chicago, she decides to revisit her troubled past. When someone murders the beloved high school basketball coach and Cass steps in to defend the girl accused of the crime, she doesn’t expect the death threats that follow....

Confronting the town that shunned her as a child, she unearths secrets that some would kill to keep buried. And after her client confesses to the crime, Cass detects a widespread cover-up. If she doesn’t get to the bottom of it soon, the next fatalities may be the ones she loves....

Burden of Truth is the first book in series of high-stakes legal thrillers. If you like blood-pumping action, compelling characters, and twisted crime conspiracies, then you’ll love Robin James’s dark tale.

Great story, narrator voice is robotic

I thought the story was well done never would have guessed who the real murderer was. Nicely done. I'm not sure if it was the narrator or the way it was recorded but she sounded robotic which was grating to the ears.

The performance was not the best but good story.

I would have enjoyed the book more if there were two readers.

Great Listen/Read

This was my first foray with this author but it will definitely not be last. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I will be listening to the second book in the series.

I don't write reviews.....

I don't write reviews. Rate..... yes. Review.... no. I read and listen to way too many to write a review unless the book is spectacular. The story and the characters were believable and very likeable. All aspects of Burden of Truth were spectacular. I don't believe I've read anything else by this author but I will be reading the rest of this series.

By writing this review, I am recommending this book. Highly recommending this book. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Recommended!
