About this listen

Jessie Black's successful prosecution of a serial murderer and rapist put her on the path to stardom at the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office. Public defender Jack Ackerman represented the opposition, and his spectacular public breakdown after the trial put him in a mental institution and gave Frank Ramsey a second chance at freedom.

When Ramsey petitions the court for a new trial with a claim that Ackerman was ineffective, Black must step up to defend him. To keep a convicted killer off the streets, she'll need to prove Ackerman's sanity - a fact she's far from sure of. As she prepares for trial, powerful forces conspire to put Ramsey back on the streets.

Black has one chance to keep Ramsey behind bars, and it'll be the toughest fight of her career.

Great novel with an amazing storyline

This is a brilliant book. The plot keeps you on the edge all the way through.
The Narrator took me a while to warm to her. I felt she got better as it went on.
Just my opinion but persevere whilst you get used to the Narrator as at the start it’s actually annoying, but by the end it’s fantastic narration.

Enthralling tale, well performed

Really enjoyed the story, had me entertained right up until the end. Also really liked Xe Sands' narration. Calm, almost laconic, it felt as though she was sitting just behind me. Off to get the second book. Highly recommended.
