The Professor

McMurtrie and Drake Legal Thrillers, Book 1

By: Robert Bailey

Narrated by: Eric G. Dove

Law professor Thomas Jackson McMurtrie literally wrote the book on evidence in the state of Alabama. But when a power-hungry colleague uses a recent run-in between McMurtrie and headstrong student Rick Drake to end his career, he is left unsure what to do next.

Meanwhile, a devastating trucking accident in Henshaw, Alabama, leaves a young family dead. Drake, now a fledgling lawyer, takes the case against the freight carrier and soon begins to uncover the truth behind the tragedy that is buried in a tangled web of arson, bribery, and greed. On the eve of the trial and with his case unraveling in the midst of a dangerous cover-up that threatens to silence his star witnesses, Drake realizes that only his estranged mentor, Professor McMurtrie, can help him now.

With everything to lose and only justice to gain, will McMurtrie and Drake overcome bad blood to defeat a ruthless adversary? Can the Professor turn back the clock and recover all that he’s lost?

The Professor

Great book with a fast moving plot but language needs to cleaned up. Book will be great without filthy language.

Good story but know the pronunciations please

I enjoyed this story but it was disappointing for the narrator to repeatedly mispronounce a very basic legal term. This mistake could be easily avoided. Also, the version I listened to had an odd episode of repeating some of the story in what I suspect was a passage that should have been edited to remove an error.

Amazing story amazing narration

You must read this book! The story seems realistic, adventurous, filled with details, mystery and always kept interesting.

worth the time

kind of a John Grisham knockoff....too heavy on the Alabama Football....remember 🐍 Stabler, long run, UAs guard with arms locked around AU defensive player, ref staring right at them. Wonder how many more games won that way..Waarrrr 🦅,
Hey!
