When 14-year-old foster child Johnathan Thomas Woods is suspected of murder, an old letter and a tacky billboard advertisement lead him to the office of attorney Brian Stone. Recognizing the sense of hopelessness lurking under John’s angry façade, Stone is soon convinced of his innocence. When John offers up his lawn-mowing money as payment, Stone realizes this is a case he can’t refuse.

In the face of overwhelming evidence assembled by the prosecution, Stone and his team find themselves in a race against time to save an angry boy who’s experienced more than his fair share of betrayal, a boy who more often than not doesn’t seem interested in saving himself.

This is the third book and what could be called a Siri’s and even though they have recurring characters and problems from the previous books they are definitely standalone reads. And this one we find a lawyer Brian after having a very bad day with a client and almost getting stabbed to death with a pin on his way to his office and almost tripped over a bicycle parked in front. When he goes into his office he finds a disheveled young man named John wanting to give him his PlayStation money so he will defend them against murder charges on his foster mom. 14-year-old John is soaking wet, has a filthy mouth and Brian can’t help but to feel sorry for him and decide to take his case. That is a Bryans only problem though someone is stalking Lena who he helped get a credit and they never found out who the real murderer was. Is it Rebecca is she stalking her sister and Brian and John out of murder charges. This book is so good unlike all of Melinda‘s box is character driven an action packed. I loved it and highly recommend it to those who love a good legal thriller, who done it and the underdog wins the day. I can’t recommend this book enough it was so good.

I didn't listen to the first two books in this series but this was a complete story that stood on it's own.

Brian Stone is a great character! He's a very smart lawyer with a great sense of humor (and self.) In this listen, he's trying to help a teenager who is doing nothing to help himself. There were a multitude of layers and some really great interpersonal relationships. Loved it!

The narrator performed the character quite well. Great listen!!

Great listen!

I absolutely loved it! This book was full of drama and suspense! This book caught my attention from the very beginning and held it throughout the entire book. The narration was outstanding and gave the story that extra flair! It will keep you entertained! The author did an amazing job with the character builds and plot! This was my first book by this author but definitely not my last! I look forward to reading more books in this series! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

AMAZING READ!
