Many thanks to NetGalley, Hachette Audio, and Little Brown and Company for gifting me an audio ARC of this wonderful book by James Patterson and Viola Davis, with the audiobook narrated by Viola Davis. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 5 stars!
Judge Mary Stone is the most respected person in Union Springs, Alabama. A case comes before her that will tear the town apart, putting many at risk, including Judge Stone. And the judge knows that this is a no-win situation because criminally speaking, a law has been broken, but ethically is another story. No judge can satisfy everyone, but she's willing to fight for justice.
This was a gripping story that was brought to life through Viola Davis' narration. There's courtroom drama and tension, as well as characters that you will love and that will break your heart. There are a lot of relevant, hot-button topics here but this author duo handled them perfectly, showing the personal side of the laws. I'm not always one for these celebrity books, but this is a must read legal thriller - but the audiobook shines with Davis' narration so I would highly recommend that version!
