About this listen

Darren Street faces the most personal and ruthless vendetta of his life.

After forfeiting years serving time for a false murder conviction, former criminal defense attorney Darren Street finally got his freedom back and is trying to build a regular life. But when an unthinkable tragedy shatters his hard-earned normalcy, Street is left reeling from the devastating blow.

As the criminal-justice system refuses to dispense justice, he sets out - without mercy - after the man responsible. Unwilling to stop at simply righting one wrong, Street decides to dust off his legal skills and dive back in - this time to unseat the district attorney general in Knoxville, whose callous indifference nearly let a man get away with murder.

Now navigating a broken establishment already steeped in corruption, Street will find the retribution and redemption he so desperately needs - unless it draws him even deeper into the very chaos that derailed his life in the first place.

Not as good as previous

What made the experience of listening to Justice Lost the most enjoyable?

I really enjoyed previous Darren Streets. This one lost me a bit because there were so many unlikely events piled up on each other. I'm Australian, we don't elect our officials, and I just couldn't accept that every single law enforcement official in the whole book was corrupt.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Pretty bloody unlikely

Would make a great series!

I thoroughly enjoyed these books. I can see this turning into a great series. A district attorney who is not afraid to take care of things any way that is needed.

Street vs Dillard spoiler allert

It's strange to read a book with a multiple murderer as the angry unrepentant protagonist; maybe murdering presumed killers might be excused, but less so the cold blooded execution or an incompetent doctor whose dalliances delayed attention to a patient causing a death affecting the protagonist. And being abetted by his grandmother, fully aware of his vigilante murdering bent, all the time lying to everyone to get elected to a powerful office, and seemingly having all the characteristics of the politicians he seems to despise. We generally like our heroes to be honorable. Yet, the book seems to get very good reviews.
Many novels, including those by Pratt highlight prosecutorial and police injustices, but there is usually some legal remedy. Compare Pratt's Darren Street vigilante justice series with Joe Dillard legal remedy series. Bookends . Many popular thrillers make heroes of assassins taking out foreign agents, gangsters, and combatants, usually resisted by evil or weak political and/or corrupt military figures. If there is a silver lining in reality, it's that, in contrast to dictatorships, we at least try to observe legal means and trust that voters have some role getting it right. The best of our heroes do take responsibility for their action, not lie and evade any consequences. At what point can we advocate letting the end justify the means? For a while I was wondering if the book would end with a friend of someone he had murdered murdering him and become the protagonist of the next Pratt novel. Pratt is a good author, and this book was worth reading, despite my reservations. It's always hard to know an authors motivation and inspirations. Stephen Coonts' America was very dark and disturbing too - as was Steven King's The Stand -- the former seemed more political, and the later just scary and prophetic.
Maybe I'm just naive. Puzo's Godfather book was rife with assassinations, but it seemed abstract, just business, institutional, professional, historical, without glorification

Great book

I have now read several Scott Pratt novels and I have loved them all.

I will be looking for others by this author. They are “can’t stop reading” books

so sad

this series made my cry. Darren has the worst luck when it comes to the people he cares about. He is stupidly
brave & unafraid! I was glad to see the sheriff got his ba**s back an was able to become a legit law enforcer. I was disappointed in the author for forgetting about his son shawn when he was saying his goodbyes. it's sad its came to an end

Street is unreedemable

I listened to the whole series, hoping. Street did not redeem himself at all killing,did not make up for the past killings.
