Twisting Judgment: A Legal Thriller (Small Town Lawyer Book 6)

A federal judge dies after falling from a locked courthouse stairwell just before he is scheduled to testify. Small town defense attorney Leland Munroe, known for taking on difficult cases, becomes involved in the investigation that follows. The FBI arrests Vinny Baptiste, a courthouse janitor with a troubled past and connections to the courthouse. The case appears straightforward, but Munroe is unconvinced of Baptiste's guilt. He discovers the judge had secrets, and the evidence suggests a more powerful person may be responsible. As Munroe works to uncover the truth and defend Baptiste, the stakes rise. His rural retreat, previously a source of safety, faces an unexpected threat. Munroe must expose the truth before another victim is claimed.
