Mystery Legal
USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Forster returns
with a gripping thriller about a brilliant lawyer caught
between her client, a powerful family’s hidden legacy, and
the truth…
When 16-year-old Hannah Sheraton is arrested for the murder
of her step-grandfather, a prominent California Supreme
Court justice, her distraught mother contacts her old
college roommate, Josie Baylor-Bates, to take the case.
Once a hotshot criminal defense attorney, Josie stepped off
the fast track and doesn’t particularly want to get back
on. There’s something about the troubled teenager, however,
that draws Josie strongly to her. All of the evidence
points to Hannah, but there are strange and complex
dynamics at work, and Josie senses that something is
terribly wrong. When the shocking truth is finally
uncovered, it could save her client —or destroy them
all.
“[Forster] has shown an impressive ability to interweave
plot, evocative narration and character to create highly
entertaining mysteries.”—Publishers Weekly
