Story
Personal injury attorney Peter Game has a reputation: cynical, untroubled by ethics, and willing to take any case, anytime, in his pursuit of the win. He dreams of a sweetheart score that’ll make his name and net him millions. Then comes the lightning rod: a school shooting just outside of Salt Lake City. His client: the devastated mother of one of the victims. What she wants is understandable—just not simple: to sue the manufacturers of the automatic weapon used in the mass killing.

Story
Alex Armstrong has changed everything about herself—her name, her appearance, her backstory. She’s no longer the terrified teenager a rapt audience saw on television, emerging in handcuffs from the quiet suburban home the night her family was massacred. That girl, Alexandra Quinlan, nicknamed Empty Eyes, was accused of the killings, fought to clear her name, and later took the stand during her highly publicized defamation lawsuit that captured the attention of the nation. It’s been ten years since, and Alex hasn’t stopped searching for answers about the night her family was killed.

Story
One weekend, while Andrew Mason was on a fishing trip, his wife, Brie, vanished without a trace. Most everyone assumed Andy had got away with murder—it’s always the husband, isn’t it?—but the police could never build a strong case against him. For a while, Andy hit rock bottom—he drank too much to numb the pain, was abandoned by all his friends save one, nearly lost his business, and became a pariah in the place he once called home.

Publisher's Summary
An Amazon Charts bestseller.
From the bestselling author of The Neon Lawyer comes a gripping thriller about a prosecutor confronted with the darkest part of her past and the worst fears for her future....
Fourteen years ago, prosecutor Jessica Yardley's husband went to prison for a series of brutal murders. She's finally created a life with her daughter and is a well-respected attorney. She's moving on. But when a new rash of homicides has her ex-husband, Eddie, written all over them - the nightmares of her past come back to life.
The FBI asks Jessica to get involved in the hunt for this copycat killer - which means visiting her ex and collaborating with the man who tore her life apart.
As the copycat's motives become clearer, the new life Jessica created for herself gets darker. She must ask herself who she can trust and if she's capable of stopping the killer - a man whose every crime is a bloody valentine from a twisted mastermind she's afraid she may never escape.

I am enjoying this author’s work! But the narrator is distracting. Her female voices are fine, but her male voices are horrible and overacted. It is detracting from the story

Enjoyed this!
I really liked the narrator and the main character. The procedural aspects are interesting. The first two books in this series are great. The third switches to a likeable character introduced earlier in the books and shifts away from Yardley. He’s a good character but I like these books mostly because of her.

Giving this a 4 overall just because it was just a tad implausible. Having said, that I couldn’t put it down. Lots of twists and turns to keep my interest high. The narration was stellar.

Totally worth a listen!
I enjoyed this book. The story was generally well written and the narrator was perfect. Some of the court chapters were a little annoying, that was my main issue and why I am not giving it 5 stars. There was either a lack of objections or a surplus of them 😄 although it was demonstrated later on that his situation was serving a purpose for the plot, it was not very well done in my opinion. But all in all, a good story 👌🏻
