Objection

By: Andre Sanders

Narrated by: Josiah Norton

She agreed to her abduction...but never dreamed that she’d fall in love.

Single mother Shei Rivera volunteers herself to a plan orchestrated by her father, Liam Rivera, who is a criminal defense prosecutor for the state of Virginia. The situation requires Shei to commit an unimaginable crime of her own—homicide.

Liam has ordered her to murder the man he prosecuted years prior over a reckless-driving-related death of a child.

On the morning of her abduction, Shei is physically assaulted, gagged, and bound prior to being thrown inside the trunk of a vehicle. Unsure of who her attacker is, she is transported to a cabin deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains and handed over to Casper Floyd, the man whom her father helped convict. Strangely, Shei discovers that Casper is nothing like he was described as being. He is nice, polite, and vows to look after her. Also, he denies any wrongdoing in the crime he had been incarcerated over. He claims that it was her father who assured his conviction by way of deceitful and highly unlawful legal practices.

As the two spend much time learning about each other, Shei discovers the shocking secret that her deceased mother’s two-million-dollar life insurance policy is at the heart of this scheme. She comes to the conclusion that Casper is not the monster he was made out to be and is actually there to protect her.

The true villain seems to be everyone else involved. Individuals she would have never once suspected. For what reason would someone want them both dead? How far will Shei and Casper have to go to assure their survival? Ultimately, can love and affection truly evolve from an intended devastation?
