Synopsis

Marie seems to have it all: a devoted husband, two wonderful children, and a professional career. But all of that changes when she drives her car into the darkened parking lot of a fast food restaurant. After she lowers her car window to place an order at the drive-thru, a man suddenly appears and places a gun at her temple. What follows is every woman's worst nightmare.

The Edge of Malice is a true story about struggle, determination, and a quest for justice. The author, an attorney, places the listener into the swirling currents of the courtroom where no outcome is ever certain. But the story does not conclude when the legal battle is over. The listener follows Marie as she struggles to resolve the unrelenting anger that the legal system has been unable to extinguish. In the end, Marie's journey to find inner peace is as improbable as it is transformative.
