A mother herself, Annie understands the emotional devastation this woman is going through.

Publisher's Summary
John Lescroart - the “master of the legal thriller” (Chicago Sun-Times) - is back in action, marshaling his witty dialogue and airtight plotting in this electrifying thriller featuring attorney Dismas Hardy as he grapples with his longtime trusted assistant being charged as an accessory to murder.
Dismas Hardy knows something is amiss with his trusted secretary, Phyllis. Always reliable and consistent, she’s been behaving out of character and disappearing without notice. Dismas becomes even more concerned when he discovers Phyllis has been reluctantly playing host to her convict brother, a man just released from San Quentin after serving a 25-year sentence for armed robbery and attempted murder.
Things take a shocking turn with Phyllis is suddenly arrested at work, accused of being an accessory to the murder of Hector Valdez, a coyote who’d been smuggling women into the country from El Salvador and Mexico. That is, until recently, when he was shot to death - on the very same day Phyllis started disappearing from work. The connection between Phyllis, her brother, and Hector’s murder is not something Dismas can easily understand, but if his treasured colleague has any chance of going free, he needs to put all the pieces together - and fast.
As “one of the best thriller writers to come down the pike” (USA Today), John Lescroart crafts yet another whip-smart and rousing novel filled with shocking twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the very end.

I was so excited about a new Dismas Hardy Book.
Not sure why the change of narrators. But when you've been listening to the series for years and all of a sudden the characters have a totally different personality and voice its very disappointing. Not as bad a some authors with their political leanings but I listen to these audio books to NOT hear that. Ive often wished that David Colacci would reread the prior ones read by Robert Lawrence. If you'd never read one of this series maybe the book would be okay.

Excellent story, must read Fatal first to be able to follow along. I think it needed to be narrated by David Colacci but I'm going to give it a 2nd go round.

Disappointing with an abrupt ending
Not one of the better additions to the series. The story was great up to a point. However, the author dug such a deep hole for the main characters that there was no way of getting out of it other than an abrupt ending. The narrator used essentially the same tone and inflection for all of the characters which also detracted from the experience.
