The Last Plea Bargain

By: Randy Singer

Narrated by: Tavia Gilbert

“You learn early that you don’t get to prove your case with Boy Scouts and nuns. Yes, convicted felons will say anything to get out of jail, but they also know a lot.” Plea bargains may grease the rails of justice, but for Jamie Brock, prosecuting criminals is not about cutting deals. In her three years as assistant DA, she’s never plea-bargained a case and vows she never will. But when an infamous defense attorney is indicted for murder and devises a way to bring the entire justice system to a screeching halt, Jamie finds herself at a crossroads. One by one, prisoners begin rejecting deals. Prosecutors are overwhelmed, and felons start walking free on technicalities. To break the logjam and convict her nemesis, Jamie must reevaluate every principle that has guided her young career. But she has little choice. To convict the devil, sometimes you have to cut a deal with one of his demons.

Randy SInger's books continue to get even better over time. Can't imagine how he could improve on this one.

Worst genre classification error ever!!!

Audible classifies The Last Plea Bargain as "religious and inspirational" which it most definitely is not; it's not even close! Come on, Audible, you can do better than this. It is a legal mystery/thriller and it is a darned good one almost earning 5 stars. Assistant DA Jamie Brock faces a dilemma in trying a case. She must decide whether protecting the reputation of her now dead dad who was a famous attorney who she adored is more important than convicting a murderer. Tavia Gilbert does a great job narrating.

Another awesome Randy Singer book!

Another great legal/christian story. The narrator was great, with emphasis & inflections appropriate when needed. I always enjoy Singer's novels & this was a truly a surprise ending!

Many twist and turns!

I love when a book isn’t predictable. This mystery kept me on the edge until the last 2 minutes! I can’t wait to check out more of Singer’s books.

Excellent! Substantive!

Tightly written with complex threads, thoroughly precise in it's legal expertise, easy to listen to, and follows remarkable turns and twists right to the last paragraph!. But this book is not just great legal drama on a par with John Grisham, it is also a solid expression of authentic moral virtue and faith in Jesus Christ, free of the simplistic moralism that misses the mark and turns non Believers away. The place if faith is winsome, not overt, integral to the plot and not distracting. Great job Randy!

Wonderfully written and read!

When emotions are the part of the story and some think they are above the law you get a whole lot of different thought processes going on. An awesome inspirational mystery and journey through a Prosecutor's office. Randy Singer has written another super story. Tavia Gilbert is the perfect Narrator for this book.

What a twist!

There’s so much to say here. The story is really well done. You never really know what’s going to happen. It’s a bit slow through the first half. Very thought provoking though. Then it really picks up! Even my kids were enthralled with the last quarter of the story!

Lots of legal intrigue

You’ll enjoy this book with the many unexpected turns and mysterious twists. I enjoy the fact that I can listen to this with my grandchildren without being uncomfortable. It takes a lot of intelligence to write a novel without the use of foul language and obscene imagery.

Looking forward to his next legal thrill series.

Prosecutorial Headache
