Publisher's summary

Would you help a man being beaten by the police?

That’s what Luke Archer had to decide. Although it was more of a reaction than a decision.

The police officer was Lizzie Lambert’s husband. She had argued with him that morning, sending him to work with an edge.

Police accountability activist Curtis Mays happened to be filming the traffic stop. Well, filming and then heckling Officer Lambert. It started with verbal insults back and forth, but it escalated.

Luke Archer was leaving the feed store and saw the altercation. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and he found himself behind bars for his trouble. Luke’s wife, Mary, and their infant daughter were in dire straits without Luke to work the farm and to keep the bill collectors at bay.

Lizzie and the police chief and the Carville prosecutor’s office were all determined to make Luke pay for his crimes, even if it meant bending the rules.

Meanwhile, Curtis faced an internal struggle with his conscience. Indebted to a man who he’d never met, Curtis tried to fix the mess he’d created.

The town of Carville was decidedly split between the Blue Lives Matter crowd and the downtrodden, who had suffered decades of excessive ticketing to support the perpetually bankrupt backwater government.

Will Luke find justice in a town run on corruption? Will a jury of Luke’s peers follow their heart or the letter of the law?

Thought Provoking

Another very thought provoking book from Phil M. Williams. These characters are so real and relevant today. Police corruption. Police abuse. Spouse abuse. Infidelity. Black Lives Matter. Blue Lives Matter. I was so afraid for these people. I didn't know how they could cope. Working together, that's how.
I was gifted an Audible version of this book. Again, the narrators presented this story to perfection. 5 stars plus for them, too.

Great Contemporary Story

Phil M Williams has written a thought-provoking story which featured several topics that are covered in the news today. A clever wordsmith, Phil M Williams managed to write a creative story that pulled the reader along like a speeding train. Once the audiobook started, I had to listen until the end. I liked that the characters weren't perfect. Tristan Wright, Mia Valyn, and GraceWright Productions provided a competent and entertaining narration. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.
