About this listen

Jessie Black's successful prosecution of a serial murderer and rapist put her on the path to stardom at the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office. Public defender Jack Ackerman represented the opposition, and his spectacular public breakdown after the trial put him in a mental institution and gave Frank Ramsey a second chance at freedom.

When Ramsey petitions the court for a new trial with a claim that Ackerman was ineffective, Black must step up to defend him. To keep a convicted killer off the streets, she'll need to prove Ackerman's sanity - a fact she's far from sure of. As she prepares for trial, powerful forces conspire to put Ramsey back on the streets.

Black has one chance to keep Ramsey behind bars, and it'll be the toughest fight of her career.

Started slow, but ended up being a great read

I ordered this from the Plus catalog, and almost stopped reading after the first couple of chapters. I decided to stay with it, and I am very glad I did.
The characters are well-developed and it's hard to tell who are the good guys and the bad guys (mostly), which is one of the things that made the story so good.
The book has its share of surprises, making it hard to put down once I got into it.
Highly recommend.

Lucky Find. Pronunciation ALS needed check

I like Xe Sands very much. Consequently, I searched for all of the books she has narrated.
I really loved "The Devil Wears Scrubs". PROBLEM:
Pronunciation of medical term ALS is aMYOtrophic , not " AMMOtrophic". MYO refers to muscle. AMMO is .... This story was very good.

Good listen

I enjoy listening to the narrator XE Sands, so much so that I went looking to find books she narrated. Came upon this one, I’ve never read anything from this author but it had a good pace, storyline and suspense.

Really enjoyed this book!

Xe Sands is one of my favorite performers.
This story as just the right mix of suspense, misdirection and humor.

Very Good Book

Enjoyed listening to this audiobook…very difficult to put down. Moved very quickly from scene to scene. Sometimes it was hard to tell the characters were different.
