When criminal defense attorney Joe Hennessy uncovers information about his son's unsolved murder, he must fight against the system to expose the truth.

In Charleston, South Carolina, eighteen-year-old Alicia Fenton is arrested for the murder of her stepfather. In exchange for information that has been buried for twenty years, attorney Joe Hennessy joins her defense team.

Best of the best. Couldn’t put it down.

Couldn’t put this one down. Can’t wait to listen to all the sequels. Craving for more.

Joe's underlying commitment to his son.

I liked the story line, thought there could have been a little more backstory on the vineyard and why it was so important to keep.

Get ready to get angry (because it’s truthful, often)

Excellent book; the author is getting even better, the characters are developing nicely, & part of the storyline rings so true it made me angry. Yet, when the book was over, i was bummed because i wanted it to go on! 🤪 Very glad there’s a fourth book; sure hope #5 is on its way, STAT!


[Sorta spoiler: discussion of r*pe - though not of the details - so if that “triggers” you, pls be forewarned. Also, if the fact that she’s either not believed or the prosecutor doesn’t give a cr*p (as she’s the one they’re trying to make look like the “bad guy”) could give you nightmares, you might want to tread slowly. My blood boiled in places & I had to take a break once or twice (but this does demonstrate how well-written it is!), as I witnessed something “same-but-different” happen to a friend.]

Great story line and well read.

Love the audio performance. Enjoy the little twists in the overall plot. Well written story

It's a perfect book. Nothing to complain about at all!

This book had no slow parts, Had a great storyline, a great narrator and even a pretty great twist that made me say "Ah ha!"! While it wasn't difficult to assume the outcome of the book, the twist definitely kept it interesting and and it was just overall a great book! I am definitely off to look at some of this authors other books, as this was my first one. Also, it read great as a standalone. While I now want to listen to his other books, I hadn't ever listened to one before, so I knew none of the story leading up to this book, but I didn't need to. It was perfect. 

A very enjoyable listen

reality of being criminal lawyer

author realistically conveys the stress and emotions of representing clients in capital crime cases.

NICE!

This book is awesome. It keeps you interested, it keeps you in-tuned to all the characters and storylines. Sadly but gives you a snapshot of the south. I am from the south, GA; everyone is connected somehow even people who you wouldn’t think are, end up being connected.
