Book Overview

by Peter Kirkland (Author), Adele Wilde (Author)

The next verdict could be her last...

When a crushing courtroom defeat shatters her dreams of making partner, corporate attorney Rebecca Mason retreats to Widmere Island to settle her late mother's estate. But instead of finding peace, she's drawn into the fight of her life.

A county judge has been murdered, and the prime suspect is Wilmer Rojas, a beloved local landscaper and one of her mother's closest friends. Rebecca has never handled a criminal case before. But when her mother's old allies beg her to defend Wilmer, she can't bring herself to say no.

Sifting through a mountain of evidence, Rebecca uncovers drug trafficking, corruption, and a conspiracy that reaches to the heights of the island's wealthy elite. Disowned by her old law firm and facing a town determined to convict, Rebecca will need every ounce of her skill-and courage-to expose the truth.

An innocent man's life is on the line. And this is one trial she can't afford to lose...
