About this audiobook
Jessie Black's successful prosecution of a serial murderer and rapist put her on the path to stardom at the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office. Public defender Jack Ackerman represented the opposition, and his spectacular public breakdown after the trial put him in a mental institution and gave Frank Ramsey a second chance at freedom.
When Ramsey petitions the court for a new trial with a claim that Ackerman was ineffective, Black must step up to defend him. To keep a convicted killer off the streets, she'll need to prove Ackerman's sanity-a fact she's far from sure of. As she prepares for trial, powerful forces conspire to put Ramsey back on the streets.
Black has one chance to keep Ramsey behind bars, and it'll be the toughest fight of her career.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a well written, enjoyable novel by a new to me author. The story is well paced with plenty of steam and mystery. Mike and Cassie are both very likable characters and easy to relate to. Their chemistry is immediate and electric. I love Cassie's snarky, take charge attitude and strong character. I look forward to reading more from Ms. O'Fallon in the future. I hope we get Dom's story.ARC received from Entangled Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
