Thriller Legal
One of my favorite types of books to read is mystery.
Adam Mitzner fills that bill with A CASE OF REDEMPTION.
Adam's book combines,
mystery, thriller, and romance. What more could I ask for?
We meet Dan Sorensen, who was a very important
lawyer. Then due to tragic events, his life changes. We
also meet Nina, a young women who also is almost a lawyer.
Nina believes in an inmate Legally Dead, a rapper who is
accused of murdering a young singer. Nina must convince
Dan to help her with this case. Will Dan go back to being
a lawyer?
I was glued to the pages of A CASE OF REDEMPTION. Adam
Mitzner puts readers right
into the story line. It makes readers feels like they are
reading about some of the young singers of today. Hopefully
the outcome of their lives will not end up like what
happened to Legally Dead.
Adam Mitzner also teachers redaders about different
laws and what really goes on behind the scenes of a murder
trial. Mitzner's writing reminds me somewhat of James
Patterson.
Readers also learn what caused Dan to change his life not
once
but several times. Readers also learn why Nina
believes in Legally Dead and what is behind all of her
moves. Dan and Nina go all out to find out what really
happened on the night of the murder. While spending so
much time together, they find themselves falling in love.
Dan is not sure that he wants to go down that road again,
but only time will time.
In A CASE OF REDEMPTION, Adam Mitzner, mentioned characters
that I
believe must be from his previous book. With this being
said, it does not cause any problems while reading this
book.
However, I feel I must read the first book. This will give
me a even better understanding of Dan Sorensen.
A CASE OF REDEMPTION is a great book, and I would
definitely recommend this book to another
reader who likes a good murder mystery, with some romance
mixed
in.
SUMMARY
Acclaimed thriller author Adam Mitzner returns with the
gripping tale of a high-profile attorney recovering from a
personal tragedy who’s drawn back into the courtroom—and a
media firestorm— in the biggest murder trial in a decade. Dan Sorensen was once a high-powered New York City defense
attorney . . . but that was before a horrifying accident
killed the two people in his life who meant the most,
plunging him into a downward spiral. As he approaches rock
bottom, Dan is unexpectedly offered the opportunity of a
lifetime: defend an up-and-coming rapper in a murder trial
on the front page of every newspaper. Although his client
swears he’s innocent of the brutal slaying of his pop star
girlfriend, proving it will not be easy, especially because
he’s suspected of bragging about the crime in one of the
hottest songs in the country. Unsure that he’s ready to handle such a high-stakes case,
Dan realizes that this chance to save a man he believes has
been falsely accused of murder just may be his last and only
hope to put his own life back on track and achieve
redemption for his past sins. But as Dan delves deeper and
deeper into the case, he learns that atonement comes at a
very steep price. A powerful and riveting new voice in
fiction, Adam Mitzner pulls out all the stops in his
follow-up to the highly acclaimed A Conflict of Interest. A
Case of Redemption is a gritty, sophisticated thriller that
will draw fans of Scott Turow and John Grisham into a world
of relentless suspense.
