Description

A gripping legal thriller where the pursuit of justice comes at a deadly cost.

When a former prosecutor agrees to represent a death-row inmate, he expects a tough legal fight. What Jake Clearwater doesn’t expect is the case of his career—one that threatens his life. Duane Durgeon has been convicted of brutally murdering a young couple, and the evidence against him seems damning. A partial fingerprint, a deal-making ex-lover, and a violent past make Durgeon an easy man to hate. But as Jake delves deeper into the case, he uncovers disturbing truths about the trial that no one else wants to see.

In a legal system designed to convict and forget, Jake risks everything to expose the cracks. As his investigation intensifies, so do the threats against him, pushing Jake to the edge of both the law and his conscience. With powerful enemies and a looming retrial, can Jake unravel the lies in time, or will the cost of justice be too high?

This book is a must-read for any fan of courtroom thrillers. There is no stone left unturned when Jake Clearwater takes on a case.” — San Francisco Book Review
