Perfect for you if...

You love courtroom dramas with sharp dialogue and lawyers who actually feel like real people, not cardboard cutouts.
You want a legal thriller that moves at breakneck pace without sacrificing character depth or clever wit.
You're drawn to stories where personal loyalty clashes with professional ethics, and neither side is clean.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer quiet, introspective narratives over propulsive plots driven by conflict and high stakes.
You need pristine heroes. Mike Daley is flawed, cynical, and operating in morally grey territory throughout.
You're looking for legal accuracy and procedure over entertainment. This prioritises page-turning tension.

About this book

Mike Daley is an ex-priest and ex-public defender who has just left one of San Francisco's most prominent law firms to set up his own practice on the wrong side of town. When his best friend and former colleague is charged with the brutal double murder of two fellow lawyers, Daley finds himself drawn into a high-profile investigation involving the very firm that recently dismissed him. As Daley prepares his defense, he uncovers the firm's secrets and discovers that ambition, friendship, greed, and long-standing grudges will be as significant to the trial as truth and justice. The novel introduces criminal defense attorneys and former spouses Mike Daley and Rosie Fernandez, who are incompatible as a married couple but work well together professionally. This is the first book in a legal thriller series featuring Mike Daley and Rosie Fernandez.
