The Darkest Place

A Robin Lockwood Novel

By: Phillip Margolin

Narrated by: Thérèse Plummer

Defense attorney Robin Lockwood faces an unimaginable personal disaster and her greatest professional challenge in New York Times bestselling author Phillip Margolin's next legal thriller, The Darkest Place.

Robin Lockwood is an increasingly prominent defense attorney in the Portland community. A Yale graduate and former MMA fighter, she's becoming known for her string of innovative and successful defense strategies. As a favor to a judge, Robin takes on the pro bono defense of a reprehensible defendant charged with even more reprehensible crimes. But what she doesn't know—what she can't know—is how this one decision, this one case, will wreak complete devastation on her life and plans.

As she recovers from those consequences, Robin heads home to her small town of Elk Grove and the bosom of her family. As she tries to recuperate, a unique legal challenge presents itself—Marjorie Loman, a surrogate, is accused of kidnapping the baby she carried for another couple, and assaulting that couple in the process. There's no question that she committed these actions but that's not the same as being guilty of the crime. As Robin works to defend her client, she learns that Marjorie Loman has been hiding under a fake identity and is facing a warrant for her arrest for another, even more serious crime. And buried within the truth may once again be unexpected, deadly consequences.

Enjoyable

Good story easy listen A nd Plummer is terrific and made it an easy pleasant listen, once again me Margolis draws the reader or in this case the listened into the story making me think a out the characters the plot and highs of win in and the terrible losses thanks again Phil the wonderful tale

Molto bello

I liked all the titles in this series, but I thought this was particularly good, perhaps because it reminded me a little of my favorite Lincoln Lawyer title. I’m glad a new installment is announced for later this year! And the narrator is superb, hopefully she will stay on for the next one

Not as good as the first five in this series

I’ve binged on Robin Lockwood during the last week and 5 stars for each! However, I did not enjoy this one as much as the previous Robin Lockwood books.

I don’t know why, but the author took this book in a different direction…he added some events that can’t be undone. Sorry to be so cryptic, but I don’t want to be specific as it would spoil it for others.

All Margolin books!

I love not being able to tell what's coming! Always a great read or listen.

love this series

Finishes it in one day. Now I have to wait 8 months for the next one. I can't wait
