Publisher's summary

The trial of the century has arrived.

After twenty years of anguish, after twenty years of pain, defense attorney Joe Hennessy has the chance to confront the man who ordered the murder of his ten-year-old son.

In Charleston, South Carolina, Hennessy uncovers evidence that Senator Richard Longhouse has links to his son's unsolved murder.

Desperate to know the truth, Hennessy digs deep into the past, following the evidence trail into the criminal underworld. Clashing with corrupt cops, dishonest politicians, and ruthless felons, Hennessy uncovers information that has been buried for twenty years.

But to find justice, to finally expose the truth, Joe Hennessy must risk everything he loves...

Joe Hennessy.

The way he held himself. The way he took on the system the way he held his family in highest. Absolutely love the story, best of all, and most of all, the voices and the delivery of the story. I hate monotone stories. Don’t even listen to them because they do not interest me but all four books in the Jo Hennessey series were freaking awesome. Good job well done.

Joe Hennessy was Jack Reacher in a suit with a law degree

I loved the series. I loved the characters, especially Joe Hennessy and Lockett together. I love it when the good guys win. I would listen to more stories with these characters and the narrator.

Legal thrillers are my favorite .

I enjoy stories when they can switch so naturally from one character to the next
