De: Michael Stagg

Narrado por: George Newbern

Secrets lie buried in the rubble. Someone will kill to keep them there.

After years of working in the family construction business, attorney Mason Pierce starts his legal career with a powerful Michigan firm. When a crowded patio on the back of an old restaurant collapses, Mason's new firm decides he's the perfect attorney to defend the owner and figure out what went wrong.

With his client facing multiple counts of manslaughter and a massive civil suit, Mason investigates, as an angry prosecutor and an opportunistic plaintiff's lawyer fight him at every step. Helped by a tenacious expert and his old construction crew, Mason soon discovers that there was more to the tragic accident than a simple collapse, uncovering a decades-old mystery in the wreckage.

As Mason sifts through the rubble for the truth, ruthless forces converge to keep it buried. And when someone he loves pays the price for his investigation, Mason must find a way to defend his client and protect his family—even if it costs him his career.

The Concrete Alibi is the first book in the Mason Pierce Series. If you like legal intrigue with jolts of action, you'll love this propulsive legal thriller from Michael Stagg.

Great book

I like other series better, not sure I heard it right when Mason was described as 6’4” and 220, that wouldn’t make him a big man, he would be lanky, not large

He did it again!

Another great book by Michael Stagg! What a way to start this series. I love that he brought back characters we’ve gotten know and like…dislike. I love George Newbern the the narrator. He brought a new series and character to life with that old comfortable armchair feeling.

It's good but it's not Nate Shepherd series good.

This was a good book, and the narrator is always fantastic. However, without giving spoilers there was a pretty big plot hole that suddenly fixes itself out of nowhere. Because of the author and the narrator, I'll give the second book of the series a chance when it comes out but this was more of a 6.75/10 instead of the usual 8.5/10

its ok

its ok if you dont mind that the main character, a lawyer, doesnt know that he was bugged for months so that the bad guys knew everything that he was doing for most of the story for his defense!

Good Character Building

Book had a good story except for the new clientele the end. Not sure why Mason would accept the new clientele.
