Power and Justice

Tex Hunter Legal Thriller Series, Book 1

An innocent man is accused of murder. His enemies want blood. Criminal defense attorney Tex Hunter is the only hope he has left.

Robert Sulzberger appeared to have a perfect life—a respected position in the City Council, a lovely family, a house with all the trimmings—but behind the façade, his life was crumbling. Drawn into a world of crime and corruption, Sulzberger couldn't find a way out. He couldn't escape. And when he tried to walk away, he found himself behind bars. The trial captures the media's attention, and the dark forces of politics are thrown into the limelight. As the son of a convicted serial killer, Tex Hunter knows just how dangerous those forces can be.

Hunter battles against deception, fraud, and cover-ups, risking everything in the most difficult case of his career. Can justice triumph against corruption? Or will the dark side of politics bury the truth forever?

Power and Justice is the first book in this high-stakes legal thriller series. It can be enjoyed as a standalone novel or part of the heart-pounding Tex Hunter Legal Thriller series.

An Actual Surprise Ending

For some reason I had a problem separating the brothers in the beginning. Maybe I was distracted. I enjoyed the story but wished certain parts were more developed. But, with all of that said, I would definitely recommend it as a very good story.

So far, smells overly woke inspired

Just one-hour in and after pre-ordering with anticipation for a “tough” new male character, the story is sprinkled with heavy doses of today’s version of tough women who think femininity is weak and apparently just slap men silly (already 2 different women have slapped 2 different men, and did so forceful as a man). And of course, like every TV show and commercial since 2020, we learn that the lead character had a interacial relationship (contrived yawn). I was hoping the author could withstand all of the woke edits that the junior editors fresh out of woke universities are making to all otherwise good novels nowadays … novels that some of us faithfully use to escape from all of the woke madness and virtual signaling that plagues all other media. Disappointing thus far but I will update my review if there is a meaningful positive change.

Storyline

The book was good. The reader was good. It moved slow but finally picked up towards the middle.

Couldn’t stay with it

Not sure if it was the story or narrator, but usually am hooked by this author by chapter 2. I couldn’t concentrate or stay with it. Will try for the next book!!

Great Read

I am truly enjoying reading the books by this author. I enjoy the legal aspect of it, the character development, the narratives… It’s just really great reading, and I recommend it to anybody who enjoys a good legal fiction.
