A murder from the past hides an even darker secret....

A boating accident has left one teenager dead and three others traumatized. Charleston attorney Leland Munroe is determined to prove his client wasn’t responsible, but prosecutor Patrick Ludlow will stop at nothing to keep his own son out of trouble. Even if it means sending an innocent person to jail….

But as he prepares his case, a desperate man approaches Leland about an injustice from the past. Eighteen years ago, Maria Guerrero was convicted of murdering Peggy Ludlow, Prosecutor Ludlow’s first wife. The evidence was stacked against her, but Leland is positive the woman was innocent. But if Maria didn’t kill Peggy, who did?

As both cases collide, Leland finds his own son in the crossfire. Now the small town lawyer must ask himself.… How far he will go to find justice? Is he willing to put both his career, and his freedom, on the line?

Again same problem as the last two. I feel incomplete with the conclusion of the trial. I do love the Terry/Leland moments as they bring some humor to the series. I did like more stuff that happened in here but many unanswered qurstions left. Narration as well has the same issue. Much dial turning to hear it.

I am starting to like the characters

Love the story - love the narration. Great series that I stumbled upon; but very glad I did. I accidentally read this book before the next in the series, or I should say the last in the series so far. Can’t wait for the next book.

Excellent series!

This book is the cherry on top of the sundae that is this series. Just enough plot twists to make it impossible to put down but not so many that it’s hard to follow. Great work!

Couldn’t stop listening

I've been enjoying this audiobook series about small-town lawyer Leland Monroe, who's returned to his small Southern hometown in disgrace after using the benefits of his office to protect his alcoholic wife, who is now deceased. In this particular book, we follow two cases. Both feature people for whom the scales of justice are weighted down. Both are at a substantial disadvantage, one socioeconomically and ethnically and the other because he’s the perfect fall guy, as it is unlikely the other surviving young man, the son of the circuit solicitor (the head of the local prosecutorial team), would pay for what happened that fatal night. Leland has to walk on tenterhooks with both cases, as he doesn't want to inflame Mr. Ludlow (the circuit solicitor) and make himself any more of a target than he already is because of his prior cases. With great care, he researched the old case where a Hispanic mother of five was convicted of murdering her boss, the circuit solicitor’s mother, and put away for life. The main case, so to speak, is about a horrible accident that took a promising young man's life, but it’s hard to pin the blame for a matter that is simply a tragic accident, not really the fault of the young people involved beyond doing stupid young people things like drinking and driving a boat after midnight. As in the other book I listened to—yes, I'm reading them out of order—I really enjoyed the courtroom scenes. As with the previous book I'd listened to, I wasn't wild about the narrator. He does a perfectly fine job voicing the male main character, Leland, but his voicings of the women, in particular, are atrocious and painful to listen to. I hope this author chooses another narrator for the next series of books if he's going to have female characters. The narrator doesn't even do that great of a job with the young men. He also gives somewhat weird, stereotypical accents for the older Southern gentleman.

Two Cases to Follow with Very Sympathetic Clients
