À propos de cet audio
From the former Chief Justice of Canada comes a riveting thriller starring Jilly Truitt, a rising, young defense attorney faced with a case that hits close to home. A searing look at what justice means in the courts and on the streets, Full Disclosure is perfect for fans of Kathy Reichs, Louise Penny, and Lisa Scottoline.
When everyone has something to hide, the truth is the only defense.
There’s nothing Jilly Truitt likes more than winning a case, especially against her former mentor, prosecutor Cy Kenge. Jilly has baggage, the residue of a dark time in a series of foster homes, but that’s in the past. Now she’s building her own criminal defense firm and making a name for herself as a tough-as-nails lawyer willing to take risks in the courtroom.
When the affluent and enigmatic Vincent Trussardi is accused of his wife Laura’s murder, Jilly agrees to defend him, despite predictions that the case is a sure loser and warnings from those close to her to stay away from the Trussardi family. Determined to prove everyone wrong, Jilly investigates Laura’s death, hoping to discover a shred of evidence that might give the jury a reasonable doubt. Instead, she is confronted by damning evidence and uncooperative witnesses at every turn. Someone isn’t telling the truth, but who?
With her reputation and Vincent’s life on the line, Jilly tries to unravel the web of secrets surrounding Laura’s murder. As she digs deeper, she uncovers a startling revelation that will change not only the case, but her life forever.
From the gritty streets of Vancouver to the fateful halls of justice, Full Disclosure is a razor-sharp thriller that pulses with authenticity and intrigue.

Not bad for a first kick at writing fiction

Why the heck would a jury switch from an obvious acquittal (there was a mountain of reasonable doubt and multiple other persons of interest that were not investigated, to a guilty verdict based on a woman (not identified) saying she couldn’t go home (but not saying why), then turning and going directly home? How does that vague report days before the murder impact the jury’s decision in any way??? It made absolutely no sense.
Additionally, what bothered me throughout was there was seemingly no interest or concern for truth or justice. It was ALL about winning and losing for the lawyers. It seemed winning the case was the focus and the actual accused and victims were just pawns in the game the defence and prosecutor were playing. Perhaps that’s why the facts of the case and change in verdict didn’t make much sense?
I wanted to like this, but . . .
