Small Town Trial

Spencer Dunn Legal Thrillers, Book 1

By: Peter Kirkland, Mike Avery

Narrated by: Jeffrey Kafer

Murder in a sleepy coastal town… Can attorney Spencer Dunn keep his head above water?

When beloved mayor turned state senator Carlton Osborn is found dead on his boat, the prime suspect is the only other person on board: his pregnant teenage girlfriend, Amber Vega.

Struggling to restore his self-confidence after a string of personal and professional losses, Spencer Dunn isn’t eager to defend a young woman who is almost certainly guilty yet refuses to follow his legal advice. But once Spencer starts digging, he realizes this case isn’t as simple as the police are making it out to be.

Spencer doesn’t know the meaning of the word “quit,” and he’s willing to ruffle some feathers in his quest to uncover the truth. But in the course of unraveling the mystery of Osborn’s murder, he’s making some very powerful enemies.

Small Town Trial!

This is such a good legal thriller with an addictive plot. I like the characters. The author does a great job weaving a story that keeps you engrossed in the story-line and characters. Spencer, a lawyer, is dealing with case that might be more than he imagined it to be. The story develop is great with intrigue and suspense. The narrator did a great job as well.

Story very good.

PK never disappoints with his books. I think I’ve listened to all of them,, but the narrator got on my nerves with his voice as well as some others narrators.
Did I miss what happened with his hearing which led to his h/los?

Weak characters

The narrator is so flat and monotone. The characters are weak and not well developed.

A Breezy, Engaging Listen with Great Narration

Peter Kirkland delivers a well-written, fast-paced story that’s both engaging and easy to follow. While the plot moves quickly, it’s the kind of book that is perfect for unwinding. The narrator does a fantastic job bringing the characters to life,
