About this listen

When a billionaire dies, an innocent woman is blamed. One lawyer must fight a wealthy family for justice.

It seems straightforward to Attorney Nate Shepherd: a middle-aged billionaire dies while celebrating at a wedding reception. The grief-stricken family lashes out, though, blaming the billionaire’s date for his death. When the family brings all of its power to bear, the wheels of local justice threaten to overwhelm the woman.

As Nate Shepherd steps in to defend her, he tries to deflect the misplaced anger that’s directed at the woman for the tragedy. But as the investigation progresses, a tangled history unravels, including unexpected ties to Nate’s own life. And with each secret that is uncovered, the stakes rise until Nate finds himself fighting for the woman’s freedom in a trial for her life.

Can Nate Shepherd protect an innocent client from a family trying to buy its own brand of justice?

This is the second book in the gripping Nate Shepherd Legal Thriller series. If you like razor-sharp dialogue, iron-willed characters, and slippery moral quandaries, then you’ll love this fierce courtroom drama.

it is very similar yet completely different from the first one. unlike the first, this time the case against the defendant is pretty weak. yet there are discoveries that could potentially bury the defendant if it comes to light. But our hero manages to exonerate the innocent.. or did he 😉

a good legal thriller with a twist

The first book was really good, the plot was simple, no major twists or discovery of something big. This book tried to use the same formula but failed to deliver the same punch

The plot was weak from beginning, and it appeared as something new will surface, but it never did. The case and it's verdict were obvious from the beginning and we didn't see great play of words or any twist of any kind during the trial.

This book is not recommended at all

This is the second book of the Nate Shepherd series. And this is the complete opposite of the first book. This book could have been better in so many ways. A wealthy man dies while dancing at a wedding and his family blames his date for his murder.

The starting of the book was pretty smooth with Nate's past meeting a new present. But once the murder trial starts everything goes a different way. The plot is thin and the story is not as good as the first book. Here, there is no evidence for anything and the court-room drama was not appealing. If the detective would have dug deeper and actually found some evidence (spoiler ahead) then the actual murderer would not have been set free. Final verdict, it was not a good read, the ending was not satisfying, but I decided to give this series a chance by reading the third book next, because the first book was splendid.
