About this listen
“I didn’t have a choice. I didn’t.” That’s what Allie Whitman tells herself every night as she lies awake. Sometimes she even believes it. But mostly she knows deep down that her inability to make a hard choice has put millions of lives at risk, including her own. Now the only one who can help her is her lawyer, Connor Norman. Unfortunately, Allie’s actions have destroyed Connor’s trust in her - and may destroy much, much more.

David Cobb is not a typical lawyer--he's more interested in dispensing God's wisdom than pertinent legal advice. High-stakes litigation is way outside his comfort zone. For many years, Zeke Caldwell has been concocting home remedies made from natural ingredients found in the coastal marshes near Wilmington, North Carolina. One of his remedies proved so effective that he patented it with the help of David's father. Now he suspects a big drug company has stolen his formula. What he doesn't know is that the theft has deeper, more evil roots.

Excellent book in every way!
Enjoyed this story completely. Engaging characters and a plot that kept me hooked, without the distraction of the profanity that is so "normal" in most novels today. Absolutly refreshing! I intend to read every book Rick Acker has written. Jane Jacobs did a great job with naration.

Slightly better than average entertainment.
It's not a blockbuster and not a literary lovely...just an entertaining novel. It's an easy to follow plot with interesting characters. They might wind up in a series, but not likely.

The devil is in the details
this book was ok for a long drive. Not enough foreshadowing for the ending ... in my opinion.
NARRATOR: when you speak the name of an obscure town like Salina, KS, be sure you pronounce it correctly. Salina has a 'long I'm rather than long 'e'.
overall a decent read.

Suspenseful and interesting. Had me on the edge of my seat without the inappropriate language and sexual content. Just a smidgen of romance.
