Resumen del Editor

He’s won every trial. Because he’s behind every murder.

Ambitious District Attorney Randal Korn lives to watch prisoners executed.

Even if they are not guilty.

An innocent man, Andy Dubois, faces the death penalty for the murder of young girl. Korn has already fixed things to make sure he wins a fast conviction.

The one thing Korn didn't count on was Eddie Flynn.

Slick, street-smart and cunning, the former con artist turned New York lawyer has only seven days to save an innocent man against a corrupt system and find the real killer.

In a week the Judge will read the verdict, but will Eddie be alive to hear it?

Really Good. Love it!

I’ve read Thirteen and Fifty Fifty and I think this book is the best so far. Love the socio-political issues interwoven into this action crime thriller story. I also find the voice actor really good. Even though he was just one actor acting out so many characters he tried to make each one sound different and I had no difficulty distinguishing which character is which. My only criticism is that I was disappointed when I found out who The Pastor really was and I kinda felt there were no breadcrumbs leading to the revelation of his identity.

*****

👍👍👍👍 Great story. Interesting characters. Suspense. What else do you need! Definitely a great thriller and I will listen to the other books for sure.

My opinion on the novel

There are a lot of books I’ve read on Audible and I normally look for suspense and mystery arguments. The Devil’s Advocate has been one of the books I’ve liked most. I didn’t know the author and now I’m very pleased I’ve come to know him. The narrator is outstanding and makes you live each character. Now I look forward to find more books of Cavanagh.

Cavanagh keeps getting better

I'm really impressed how good Steve Cavanagh is as a writer. This one is another win.

Deliciously over the top

I’m a little gutted that this is the first Steve Cavanagh book I have read, because I found out during my listen that it was book 6. This had me on the edge of my seat. I was looking for a nice law thriller, but this was even more than I expected. I instantly loved all the characters. The bad guys were over the top evil, but not in a terrible way. It suited the story and the ending really tied everything together. I enjoyed the author’s narrative voice. It’s a great book.
The narrator was okay. He had a pleasant voice but my one complaint was that he could only do two different kinds of voices, so if I wasn’t paying very sharp attention it was difficult to make out who was talking
