Publisher's summary

This trial should be a slam-dunk. A faceless powerbroker has other ideas....

Small-town prosecutor Mara Brent must be tough as nails to succeed in her male-dominated profession. But she harbors a soft spot for the victims who rely on her courtroom skill, especially the wheelchair-bound rape survivor she’s known since her first day on the job. So when her friend’s unsolved case reopens with a DNA match and an arrest, she’s determined to finally bring a monster to justice.

Though the fiend is accused of dozens of similar assaults, only Mara’s case has the iron-clad evidence to put him away. But unexpected bombshells at trial threaten to muddy her black-and-white conviction into frightening shades of gray. She suspects there’s a sinister conspiracy out to torpedo the verdict...and her career.

Can the hard-nosed attorney uncover the truth before a serial rapist walks free to strike again?

Time of Justice is the first book in the pulse-pounding Mara Brent Legal Thriller Series. If you like strong heroines, pause-resisting twists, and dark suspense, then you’ll love Robin James’s edge-of-your-seat novel.

Loved this one!!!

Engaging performance. Really enjoyed the story. The pace was consistent and really held my interest. From bedtime speaker to air pods, to Bluetooth speakers. Can't wait to start the next in the series.

Time of Justice (Mara Brent Legal Thriller Series Book 1) by Robin James is about a lawyer named Mara Brent who is a tough and brilliant prosecutor who tackles tough cases. Her latest case is an unsolved case involving a close friend of hers. Her friend was brutally raped and left for dead. Twenty years and no clue. Then they get lucky because the serial rapist struck again. This time Mara wasn't going to let him get away with it.

The negative aspect I saw was the book started slow. It was hard to get into it at first. I would've started with the rape and then jump to the present. It would've had a better impact on the reader.

What I loved about the novel was Robin James made her protagonist, Mara Brent, formidable. There were times when Mara had to struggle with her professional and personal life. She is trying to deal with betrayal. Someone is trying to stop the truth from coming out. There are a lot of twists and turns to keep you to the end. I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

Segway from Cass Leary Legal Series

I've read/listened to all the available books in author's Cass Leary's Legal series love that some of those characters are threaded into this series.

I love that the Cass Leary series was from POV of Defense Lawyer and Mara Brent series is through the eyes of a Prosecutor.
