Mystery | Suspense | Thriller

Nick Pellisante, agent in charge of the FBI's Crime Unit, finally has Dominic Cavello, known as the Electrician, in custody. After three long and exhausting years of chasing the famous Mob boss, Nick is ready for the trial to begin and the Electrician to be put behind bars for good. Andie DeGrasse, a struggling actress and single mom, does not want to be on this jury. She tries to avoid being selected but is chosen anyway. As the trial begins and damaging testimony is presented, the jury becomes uneasy. Their anxiety is heightened when they are sequestered due to a threat made on the trial judge. While traveling to the jury's hotel, tragedy strikes and Andie becomes an intricate player in a cat-and-mouse game that will cost her more than she is willing to pay. Andie and Nick travel to the end of world together, from New York to the Mediterranean Sea to South America, to bring the Electrician and his cohorts to justice. I loved this novel!! JUDGE & JURY is action-packed from the first page to the last. You will get caught up in the chase and the connection that Nick and Andie find while on their adventure. Once again, James Patterson, in collaboration with Andrew Gross, pulls you into this riveting story and sweeps you into a world of crime and justice.

SUMMARY

Senior FBI agent Nick Pellisante is closing in on the notorious mob boss "The Electrician," when the scheduled sting goes spectacularly awry. Two FBI agents are dead, the boss is wounded, and Pellisante vows the Electrician's next move will be from a jail cell. Andie Echeverra, a part-time actress and a single, full-time mom, is assigned her next role as Juror #11 in the landmark trial against Mafia Don Dominic Cavello. Everybody is on edge. No one has ever crossed the man whose orders have made entire families disappear. Though Cavello's influence extends across blue uniforms and black robes, the case should be open-and-shut. But the legal system fails with devastating results, and Nick and Andie are the only ones left to seek justice. To stop the Electrician, they must take matters into their own hands. They are the judge and jury now.
