Acerca de esta escucha
Jack Carney’s life is unexpectedly put on hold. He is not a criminal lawyer, but his friend needs help. He remembers his time in Japan flying covert missions against the Russians. What would his flight crew think of him now? By comparison, his legal career lacks purpose. If he defends Connor, there will be consequences. His firm does not allow involvement in criminal cases.
This is the story of a trial that changes the lawyer’s life. If you like a bit of legal intrigue laced with a touch of Southern culture and the drama of a trial, you’ll like this story.
About the author: Now a retired attorney living in the Florida Panhandle, Roberts served as the lead trial attorney for the Louisiana Attorney General's Office in Baton Rouge and also practiced for many years in a private civil law firm.
He once flew reconnaissance missions over Russia while stationed in Japan and serving his tour of duty. Writing books and telling stories have always been a favorite pastime. The author states this debut novel is totally fictional, though told as a memoir. But he allows this: The yellow Mustang convertible is real.

First published by St. Martin's in 1958, Robert Traver's Anatomy of a Murder immediately became the number one best seller in America, and was subsequently turned into the successful and now classic Otto Preminger film. It is is not only the most popular courtroom drama in American fiction, but one of the most popular novels of our time. A gripping tale of deceit, murder, and a sensational trial, Anatomy of a Murder is unmatched in the authenticity of its settings, events, and characters.

Enthralling
I found this story captivating. Jack Carney is a civil attorney who has an average quiet life. Suddenly his best friend kills a man in police custody in full view on the T.V. news. Carney is determined to defend his friend against everyone’s advice. What happens, how he goes about it, what he learns about his friend and the victim kept me glued to the book. The story is low key with no melodramatics which makes it even more exciting. I highly recommend this book.
The book is six hours and thirty minutes. Kevin Stillwell does a good job narrating the book. Stillwell is an actor, voice actor and winner of a number of Earphone Awards.
This story was a 2019 Writer’s Digest Honorable mention finalist for the Literary Titan Silver Award.
