Over dit e-boek

 

To prove his client’s innocence, a lawyer and his investigator must endanger themselves to find the true killer in this gripping legal thriller.

Twenty-four-year-old Mary Kendricks is a vivacious, young teacher living in the quiet Northern town of Highford, her beauty turning heads wherever she goes. But when she catches the eye of Robert Carter, initial flattery quickly turns dangerous. Wherever she goes, Carter is not far behind, and Mary soon becomes stifled by his attention, telling friends of her fears that he’s getting too close.

And then Mary’s body is discovered, stabbed to death in her own bedroom.

The case quickly garners the attention of the press, all baying for Carter’s blood. It’s the case no lawyer wants to touch—until criminal defence lawyer Dan Grant, aided by investigator Jayne Brett, agrees to represent Carter.

While Robert Carter admits to being at her house when it happened—the bloody fingerprint on her wall placing him at the scene—he insists he is innocent of her death. The police believe they’ve got their man, but as they delve further into the investigation, Grant and Brett think the detectives might be looking in the wrong place—leaving the real murderer to walk free.

To catch a killer before another victim is discovered, Brett and Grant must risk everything. Including their own lives . . .

If you like Val McDermid or John Grisham you won’t want to miss this book.
