Summary
He also comes home to one of Dallas' most beautiful women, with whom he has a much-loved daughter, Boo. For Fenney, life could not be better. But when a senator's son is killed in a hit-and-run, Fenney is asked by a state judge to put his air-conditioned lifestyle on hold to defend the accused: a black, heroin-addicted prostitute, a client very different from the people Fenney usually represents. And, more importantly, she is not going be paying $350 an hour for the privilege of his services.
Under fire from all sides, Fenney drafts in a public defender. Yet as Scott prepares to hand the case over to Bobby, he feels increasingly guilty about the path he is taking, because Scott still believes in the principle of justice. The question is: does he believe in it strongly enough to jeopardise everything he holds dear? And to what lengths is the dead man's power-hungry father prepared to go to test Fenney's resolve?

Really enjoyed this book. A compulsive read. I have enjoyed every book I have so far listened to by Mark Gimenez

Very enjoyable.
A really good story, well narrated and very engaging. Characters are well developed throughout as the story moves along. Somehow the content surrounding the law and lawyer’s is unsurprising but very engaging.

Recording
I love Gimenez’s books and Pete Bradbury read it superbly, so it is such a shame it was let down by recording quality. Clearly it wasn’t recorded in a professional studio, with every mouth noise and stomach rumble audible. Why wasn't it properly edited and denoising software applied? Audible should have rejected the recording and asked for it to be cleaned up and resubmitted. Listeners, authors and narrators deserve more.

Thoroughly enjoyable
Not listened / heard of this author before but it “ popped” up on my “ recommendation list”
Brilliant narration- loved it
Story very good kept you interested.
It’s not high octane it’s not fast paced neither is it’s the dramatics of the “ court drama” see in films.
But it is really good. I would recommend this and I’m going to get the next one .

Typical but good
I liked this.
Narration was a bit off, long pauses and additional noises but it didn’t spoil it.

Better than Grisham!
Really enjoyed the plot. Maybe felt a little slow at the beginning but it all came together beautifully at the end. A gripping listen.

Up with Grisham level
Absolutely brilliant. Top class story line Top class legal court battle Top class intimate story of two different class families. Very well researched identifying the different levels of the legal system involving political conspiracies
