Perfect for you if...

You enjoy courtroom dramas where the legal stakes are matched by genuine physical danger outside the courtroom.
You like protagonists who are competent but flawed, willing to take cases others won't touch.
You want fast-paced thrillers that pile complications on top of complications without letting you catch your breath.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer slow-burn character studies over plot-driven narratives.
You need your legal thrillers grounded in procedural realism rather than mob vendettas and hitmen.
You're looking for standalone novels rather than series entries that assume you know the protagonist already.

About this book

Katherine Wright, a high school dropout with a street history, is accused of murdering a couple in Pittsburgh. When she's arrested, an angry community demands the death penalty. Ben Carter, a lawyer with a complicated past, takes on her case. Carter soon discovers the case is far more dangerous than a standard murder defense. The murdered couple's family has mob connections and has placed a contract on someone involved in the case, seeking revenge rather than legal justice. As Carter works to prove his client's innocence, he must navigate threats to his own life while uncovering what really happened.
