Resumen del Editor

Former law professor Tom McMurtrie has brought killers to justice, and taken on some of the most infamous cases in Alabama’s history. Now he’s tackling his greatest challenge.

McMurtrie’s old nemesis, Jack Willistone, is found dead on the banks of the Black Warrior River. Willistone had his share of enemies, but all evidence points to a forgotten, broken woman as the killer. At the urging of the suspect’s desperate fourteen-year-old daughter, McMurtrie agrees to take the case.

But as seasoned as McMurtrie is, even he isn’t prepared for how personal and dangerous this case is going to get. With the trial drawing near and his sharp young partner, Rick Drake, dealing with a family tragedy, he recruits his best friend, Bocephus Haynes, to help investigate.

As key witnesses disappear and old demons return, time becomes McMurtrie’s most fearsome opponent. Soon loyalties will be tested and the boundaries of law will be broken as McMurtrie fights to save his legacy—and his client’s life—before the truth is buried forever in the muddy waters of the Black Warrior.

Not as GREAT as the past 2 books in series

I’m definitely not going to explain what “The Last Trial” story is in detail, because if you haven’t read the first 2 books, you’ll have no clue who I’m talking about. So the bottom line is, this is not a stand alone novel. There’s nothing wrong with that unless you’ve not remembered who’s who in the first book of this series...and I really had to go back into my brain for that...It also had so much going on I was getting more than confused. I feel like I need to read/listen to it again.

It was a good book like the other books written by Robert Bailey, but there could have been things left out also, it was extremely long with detail after detail, that I felt didn’t need to be in. One example: “as she was vomiting she was watching it go into the bowl...then as she threw her tissue into the toilet and it went down quicker than probably the rest of her life” I’m sure I messed up a few words but Mr. Bailey definitely could have left out a lot more also. As far as the end..too quick, and I felt there could have been more explanation, but it’s only my opinion.

Like I said, it wasn’t a bad book at all! I just can’t give it the highest remarks as I did with the first two. The narrator is fabulous with his accents but unfortunately with the woman they seemed to blend in together.

Truly a Crime Novel with Intrigue!

I enjoyed the twists and turns and the references to Bear Bryant and Alabama foitballl... I love courtroom dramas and this did not disappoint!! I was taken by surprise by the ending!! A great read!!

Very enjoyable book. Surprised at real killer's ID

Great series, enjoyed this book. Excellent narration. Will continue with the next book in the series.

The Last Trial

Such a good book. Such a heartwarming story. Such wonderfully created characters. Okay, maybe everything ends like a fairy tale, but it’s nice to think that it’s possible that loose ends can be tied together and that life can turn out well for people. Love the football and the “Bear” teachings. And it’s not all sunshine and roses. There’s death and sickness and loss. It’s just such a good book - as are all of Mr. Bailey’s books I’ve read so far. As for Mr. Dove? One of the best narrators in the business. His voices are wonderful. Many of them are so - well , so like the voices I remember that made me feel safe and loved. Just such a good book.

Great listen

As always, we’ll written, factual, suspenseful, personal, and very entertaining! I recommend to everyone I know!
