Publisher's summary
A sensational trial. Dark motives. Deadly secrets.
Arrogant and abusive Judge Samuel Chesterfield is murdered in his chambers during a sensational wrongful-death trial brought against a prominent abortionist. Only the four trial lawyers had access.
Edward Mead, 77-year-old distinguished law professor, acts as special prosecutor. Still brilliant but struggling with the ravages of age and the recent death of his wife, Mead is thrust headlong into a lethal maelstrom of crime and corruption that threatens to submerge his mind and body, with the slightest misstep costing his life.
Special Agent Sarah Riehl sees the case as her one chance to shatter the glass ceiling that has suffocated her career at the FBI. Her impetuous drive to succeed recklessly propels her on a deadly gambit where the hunter becomes the prey.
This fast-paced legal thriller ripped from today's headlines combines the action and suspense of John Grisham with the classic twists and turns of an Agatha Christie locked room murder mystery, leaving the reader breathlessly guessing until the final page.
With suspense on every page, Amazon #1 Best-Selling author Michael Swiger demonstrates why he is a favorite among mystery, suspense and thriller fans.
Fans of Creston Mapes, Robert Whitlow, Scott Pratt, John Grisham and James Patterson will love this thriller from award-winning and bestselling author Michael Swiger.
Reader praise for Lethal Objection:
★★★★★ Excellent!! - As far as I am concerned this guy is light years ahead of Grisham and Patterson...just a GREAT author....GREAT story....PERIOD.
★★★★★ An important case; verdict is in; judge is murdered in chambers...This is the second Edward Mead thriller; soooo good! An important, but not very well-liked judge is murdered in his chambers just prior to the verdict being delivered in a wrongful death case. One of the attorneys must be the killer, right? Edward Mead stands out as lead investigator in another superbly written thriller by Michael Swiger. Mead is his soft-spoken self; dismissed by other council as too old to be productive; however, he's way ahead of them in insight and development of theories. He gets it right! Did you? Swiger knows how to write; his use of details to create his settings is delightful. Waiting patiently for Edward Mead thriller #3...
★★★★★ Whew to the umpteenth power!! - Unfortunately, intrigue and murder is not uncommon, but in Michael Swiger’s Lethal Objection, it occurs among four suspect attorneys and a dead judge, all within the hallowed halls of the local courthouse!
To potentially complicate matters, the prosecuting team is an unlikely pairing of an aging law professor, Edward Meade, and an attractive young FBI agent. Are you kidding? What could possibly go wrong? Edward Mead’s sense of humor is as sharp as they come! (You know you’d love to be barb sparring buds with the writer!!)
The author’s finesse with plots bears the fragrance of Alfred Hitchcock, the undisputed Master of the plot-twist! Bottom line, this novel definitely earns a “Whew” to the umpteenth power!!
★★★★★ Couldn't put it down! - WOW this was a great read! I was hooked after the first few pages. The characters are colorful and each one of them could of done it. I love reading about things that take place back in Ohio! Micheal's descriptions of the places and areas around Cleveland are great!

Story
Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Story
The Jury Did its Job...and Everyone Else's Job, too. What happens when a new jury is made up of jaded members? Some of them have sat on juries where the bailiff or a policeman stuck his head in the door and gave them information that was barred in court. Or maybe the government uses a fake tape recording to convict someone, and the jury decides to get hold of the original tape and see what's changed. Or maybe a judge has agreed to help the government because he's under audit by the IRS and facing criminal tax charges. All of these things can and do happen. Pity the poor defense attorney ...

Story
Ingrid DiLaurio lives in Riversedge, New York, four express train stops from Manhattan. Don’t be fooled: with its tree-lined Main Street, and quaint ambiance, Riversedge is only impersonating a small town. While it’s a place small enough for everyone to know each other’s secrets, few do. The town revolves around the prestigious Riversedge Law Club, where deals are made and cases are resolved and where Ingrid DiLaurio—a former lawyer turned nationally recognized podcast host—has never once been made to feel welcome.

Great legal thriller
I enjoyed the twists and turns as the suspects were investigated to come down to an unexpected conclusion. I also enjoyed the thoughtful middles in the story. I recommend this book for the young adult readerM

I was hooked from the beginning!
I loved following story of Edward Meade. The many twists and turns had me talking out loud at times, laughing, biting my nails. The author brought everything together in the end and tied the whole thing with a bow! Best book I have read on the devastating consequences of abortion. I wish every teenage girl could read the book! Great job, Michael Swiger! BTW, this book would make a great movie!!

Not a fan of AI
The story was a solid Christian fiction legal mystery. The AI reading made listening difficult. Lack of voice inflection and intonations make a difference in listener enjoyment of the story.

This book feels like it was more important to the author to vilify abortion than it was to create good story.
The book was a work of a computer generated voice and the main character’s name was continually mispronounced. The underlying story line was generally compelling and entertaining but it was interwoven with gore about abortion ruins the book. I can’t imagine that I will ever select another book by this author. I respect anti abortion opinions but don’t want them woven into a book I select for entertainment.

Many of us consider books are friends. It doesn't feel right to have our friends sound like robots
