Attorney and activist Robyn Gigl tackles the complexities of gender, race, power and public perception in By Way of Sorrow, a gripping debut legal thriller with a ripped-from-the-headlines plot and a unique protagonist who, like the author herself, is a transgender attorney.

Erin McCabe is a criminal defense lawyer doing her best to live a quiet life in the wake of profound personal change. But when a young, Black, transgender prostitute is accused of murdering a wealthy politician's son, Erin feels duty-bound to defend her—even if it puts her career and life in jeopardy ...

His son had secrets that could destroy the senator's political aspirations—secrets worth killing for. And as leads begin mysteriously disappearing, it's not just the life of Erin's client at stake, but her own ...
