A school shooting. A city in mourning. A prosecutor out for justice.

The Internet can be as deadly as a gun.

Lurking in secrecy is an evil voice known only as True_Man. True_Man haunts the Internet, befriending the lonely and the frustrated, turning adolescent emotions toward destruction. Jessie believes True_Man is just as guilty of murder as the teenager he manipulated, but proving it - and bringing True_Man to justice - will take all of Jessie's formidable legal skills and more.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Larry A. Winters brings suspense and twists in this book that kept me interested and turning the page." ( Lifes Good Journey)

Good twist

It’s just as captivating as the rest of the series I’ve listened too. Good change in the norm from just the average murder mystery

A nice listen

Funny how the story mimicked the characters. The men in this story were all useless, even the swat team.

Entertaining and short.

An entertaining and short audiobook. This was an improvement over #2 in the series, but this time Jessie is less interesting as a character but a foil to introduce the concepts of "men's rights," school bullying, entitlement, etc. With more flesh to those concepts, this could have been a great book rather than merely an entertaining listen.

Tough storyline, but good

This storyline is tough to listen to as it unfortunately, captures too much reality in our world these days. However, The author did a good job with the twists and turns in this legal thriller.

Not bad

I like the narrative but felt that ending was rushed. I would have enjoyed more investigation of the plot.

Great plot

This is the third book in this series. I liked the first two, and this one is the best! Very creative plot

Worth a Read

This is the 3rd book of a series, however, it can be read as a stand-alone. Good plot, good action, great narrator. I thoroughly enjoyed the series.

Conspiracy theory at elite private school ...

This book starts out with a teenage boy shooting 16 cheerleaders and their coach and waiting for the police to arrive. When they do the boy is disappointed that there are only two plain clothes officers and the lead is a woman. He wants to commit suicide by cop but looses his nerve when the scenario doesn't go according to the plan. Turns out, he's not the only one making plans. There's a website geared towards misogynists and someone on that site was spurring the boy on to do something about his anger, like taking a firearm to the school.
When the arresting officers find out that one of the girls was sleeping with a teacher the investigation takes a turn. The rest of the book deals with looking for the mystery man and the teacher. The are many suspects and each has to be eliminated until the shocking conclusion when the perpetrator is finally revealed.
Excellent addition to the series. Xe Sands does a great job narrating.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Thank You.

Didn't Like th Narrator.

I did not like the narrator, I had a very hard time listening to her. It was like she was mumbling. I finally gave up on the book.

Interesting but needs more diverse characters

"Deadly Evidence: Jessie Black Legal Thrillers, Book 3" (2016, 2017) by Larry A. Winters is an interesting, stand-alone legal thriller about Philadelphia Assistant District Attorney Jessie Black expanding her inquiry after a school shooting in which seventeen people were killed. After the young shooter hangs himself while in custody, Jessie pursues an uphill battle to prosecute the anonymous internet figure who encouraged the shooter. An engaging read, but I would have liked to have seen more people of color. Narrator Xe Sands is effective. Solidly recommended.
