Law professor Thomas Jackson McMurtrie literally wrote the book on evidence in the state of Alabama. But when a power-hungry colleague uses a recent run-in between McMurtrie and headstrong student Rick Drake to end his career, he is left unsure what to do next.

Meanwhile, a devastating trucking accident in Henshaw, Alabama, leaves a young family dead. Drake, now a fledgling lawyer, takes the case against the freight carrier and soon begins to uncover the truth behind the tragedy that is buried in a tangled web of arson, bribery, and greed. On the eve of the trial and with his case unraveling in the midst of a dangerous cover-up that threatens to silence his star witnesses, Drake realizes that only his estranged mentor, Professor McMurtrie, can help him now.

With everything to lose and only justice to gain, will McMurtrie and Drake overcome bad blood to defeat a ruthless adversary? Can the Professor turn back the clock and recover all that he’s lost?

What a spellbinding, page turning edge of seat and oh my gosh it seems like that could have happened story . The revenge aspect is an absolute we will all wish we could pull that off added twist . What a great novel!!
When you get to the end you might just read it again it's bad good !

The Professor

Great book with a fast moving plot but language needs to cleaned up. Book will be great without filthy language.

Good story but know the pronunciations please

I enjoyed this story but it was disappointing for the narrator to repeatedly mispronounce a very basic legal term. This mistake could be easily avoided. Also, the version I listened to had an odd episode of repeating some of the story in what I suspect was a passage that should have been edited to remove an error.

Amazing story amazing narration

You must read this book! The story seems realistic, adventurous, filled with details, mystery and always kept interesting.

worth the time

kind of a John Grisham knockoff....too heavy on the Alabama Football....remember 🐍 Stabler, long run, UAs guard with arms locked around AU defensive player, ref staring right at them. Wonder how many more games won that way..Waarrrr 🦅,
Hey!

Love a good narrator

I like listening to Eric Dove narrate a story - great inflections & really brings story to life.

wonderful

so glad I found this author. this story was very good, great narrator. I plan to listen to all the books by Robert Bailey.

Finally a great book!

Wow!
I’m new to audiobooks and haven’t read a book in decades preferring streaming series and movies. I decided it was high time I stimulated my brain now that I’m retired and have time to read.
After listening to free books people were ranking with 4 or 5 stars that barely deserved 3, I researched and bought half a dozen that were offered in the big July sale.
This is the first of those I read. Money well spent! I was captivated from the very beginning and listened to the whole thing in 2 days. The characters were so well developed and the story held my attention up to the last word.
This narrator is so good I always knew which character was speaking. I’m actually in awe of his talent.
I’m ready to immerse myself in the next book of this series. I will be looking for more stories written by this author and more stories by this narrator.

Great story except for one thing

I really enjoyed the story and memorable characters. The only thing I didn’t like was the over use of the phrase “his stomach tightened.” It got to be really annoying.

Great

Great and suspenseful. I didn't want it to end. I going to find another by Mr Bailey.
