About this listen

A brilliant and dogged young trial lawyer in San Francisco risks everything he holds dear to bring the most dangerous legal adversary in town to justice.

Down on his luck after a string of lost cases and a recent divorce, personal injury lawyer Matt Taylor hopes his next trial will be an easy win. But when he meets a devastatingly injured young man desperate for help, Matt finds himself embroiled in an impossible lawsuit against Salvatore Conte, a powerful lawyer with sinister connections. Despite all warnings, Matt courageously pulls out all the stops to uncover the truth and right a horrific legal wrong. What follows is an epic multi-million-dollar battle of wills, intrigue, and outright violence that could cost Matt everything he cares about - his career, his family, his heart...and his life.

One of the best stories I’ve listened to in a long time. The story was good, the narration was good. The end was thought through and still kept me captivated as to what the out come would be.
Shame it’s only one book so far. This would make a brilliant series.

The story was ok, courtroom bits were best parts. Overlong and at times a bit confused. Maybe tried to include too much. Loose ends. Narration was strange not terrible just odd delivery. As a freebie worth a try, would not have wanted to use a credit on it.

I have listened to numerous court/law books of all the greats but none have made me cry! I hope this author writes more brilliant novels…great narrator too!

Actually cried at the verdict 🤦🏼‍♀️

Really makes you want to keep following the characters after the end is laid out. Interesting, poignant and nail bitingly good waiting for the verdict!

Absolutely brilliant

I throughly enjoyed this story. The court room trails were really well written and I had to keep listening well after bedtime. The love story was a little less well written and I found myself rolling my eyes on several occasions... not the authors strong point but still enjoyed the book. The narrator was brilliant. I will be looking for more of his work

Great courtroom scenes

I know nothing about law especially overseas, but this was written in a way it could be followed even the courtroom scenes were easy to follow. You got the lawyers perspective and then the youth who was trying to sue for money to keep his life long care package he would now need after getting drunk as a teen with his pals, smashing up a car and ending up in hospital. Records stated he was throwing his body about after the crash but within no time he was reporting he had lost all sensation from the neck down. So from one crazy drunken incident he had been left a paraplegic for life. He needed care for all physical activities so if he was going to live life independent of his family he would need a lot of compensation for a decent care package which this lawyer thought he deserved. He had already been told that with all the different physical issues he was at greater risk of facing from being cathetered and picking up infections plus skin sores and endless other physical challenges facing him his estimated life span was 50% less than average. There were people who were hostile about the situation due to him getting drunk and getting into a car although I don't ever remember anyone saying who was driving but regardless of this there were many who had little sympathy for him but this lawyer took the case on. It's well worth a listen. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
