The Lawyer’s Plea by Freya Atwood

 

Book Excerpt:

"When a young woman dies in a brutal case of murder, everyone wants the killer dead. But James Jacker, a lawless lawyer, believes he might be innocent…

After the murder of his daughter, Lawyer James Acker spiraled out of control. But there's one thing keeping him sane: fighting for justice. And once James finds out about the case, he decides he'll defend Daryl, the main suspect, even if it means reliving the most painful moments of his life. 

But things get complicated. Defending Daryl won't be so easy, not when he hides a dark secret from him and not when the case nearly falls apart."

"The Lawyer's Plea" by Freya Atwood

My Assessment:

'The Lawyer's Plea' was on legal crime thriller that kept your attention through the story. Will lawyer James Acker be able to defend Darryl Sanders in the needed way? With this lawyer having gone through quite a bit with his daughter being killed, his wife leaving, and the secret he held, how will this all work out for him? What was happening with James's brother Elliot, a detective, and why didn't he want James to take this case? What was it about this case that James worked on that seemed like he was 'reliving the most painful moments of his life? The story is one that the reader will have to jump in and keep up with as James tries to figure out what is going on with this Darryl he is defending. Plenty of twists and turns, suspense, and drama with some very intriguing characters will leave one shaking their head as the story continues. Will James be able to save his client from the death penalty? What will happen when James learns the chilling truth about his client? And after all is said and done, how will it happen after James shares his secret with his brother Elliot? To get all of these questions answered and more, the reader must pick up this well-written story to get it all answered.
