À propos de cet audio

A transgendered youth accused of a brutal murder....

An attorney on the brink of self-destruction....

Attorney Harper Ross is at the end of her rope. Her former client, John Robinson, who she walked on a technicality, went on to kill again. John's second victim was a young, vibrant mother of two. After suffering with the devastating guilt about the evil that she unleashed back onto the street, Harper retreats to her old haunt, a bar called Charlie Hooper's, as she confronts her old demons.

Before she has a chance to completely drown her sorrows, Harper is called to defend Heather Morrison, a transgendered youth who is accused of killing her mother in cold blood. Heather insists that it was self-defense; Harper has her doubts.

As Harper gets further into investigation of the case, she discovers an evil beyond anything that she knew was possible. Her investigation of a church leads her to a Reverend who preaches hatred from the pulpit, and possibly more.

Harper gets closer to the truth, yet further away from proving anything in a court of law. Her case seems to be sinking, and nothing can possibly save it.

This Rachel Sinclair story starts off with a complex interesting defense lawyer condemning herself for getting a murderer acquited (who subsequently kills his wife).. and devolves into a screed against the invariably abusive male patriarchy, Christian hypocrisy in general, and anti-LGBTQ opinions in particular (all supported by an endlessly unjust "system".. usually corrupted by the wealthy elite).
The book is reasonably well-written - despite some unrealistic overscripted courtroom dialogue - but the over-the-top messaging had my eyes rolling.

As to presentation: Emily Sutton-Smith is a solidly professional narrator (with regards to diction, timbre, cadence, and tone), but her accents are notably weak and many of her voice-acting choices are baffling (the affected "1-800 Phone Line" sexy breathy voice of transgender client 'Heather', for example).

In toto, this audiobook merits 3 stars out of 10. 'Bad Faith: A Harper Ross Legal Thriller' is annoyingly dripping with Liberal themes. Even for free it wasn't worth the time. When it leaves the 'Plus' menu, look elsewhere (if you want quality lawyer-driven stories with Left-wing messaging, try Richard North Patterson).

[Note: this supposedly moral litigator should never be allowed to practice law in any jurisdiction, ever. Harper's complete lack of professional ethics is mindblowing]
