Synopsis

A brilliant and dogged young trial lawyer in San Francisco risks everything he holds dear to bring the most dangerous legal adversary in town to justice.

Down on his luck after a string of lost cases and a recent divorce, personal injury lawyer Matt Taylor hopes his next trial will be an easy win. But when he meets a devastatingly injured young man desperate for help, Matt finds himself embroiled in an impossible lawsuit against Salvatore Conte, a powerful lawyer with sinister connections. Despite all warnings, Matt courageously pulls out all the stops to uncover the truth and right a horrific legal wrong. What follows is an epic multi-million-dollar battle of wills, intrigue, and outright violence that could cost Matt everything he cares about—his career, his family, his heart . . . and his life.

2.5/5 stars rounded down to 2. I’m conflicted on this one. I wanted to like this one after I picked this up at a bookshop in and was intrigued by the first-time author’s premise. He’s right! Why are all of the procedural legal dramas based on criminal cases and not civil cases? The legal aspects of t......more
