Her Cold Justice

The death of a drug dealer and his girlfriend leads immediately to a suspect, a young man named Michael Westbrook. Michael worked at the same company as the dealer and was known to frequently visit his home, where he would often watch sporting events with the victim. Defense attorney Keera Duggan takes the case when she learns her investigator, JP Harrison, is Michael’s uncle. The evidence is circumstantial at best, but the ruthless prosecutor, Kim Tran, refuses any thoughts of a deal. As the case progresses, it appears that the prosecution’s witnesses know more than the defense was led to believe, and the revelations only add to Michael’s possible guilt. It doesn’t help that the presiding judge wants Keera to fail. Dugoni is a master of stories that tackle injustice, and this latest Keera Duggan thriller verifies he’s one of the best storytellers as well. He should be considered in the same breath as Michael Connelly when it comes to writing about life in law enforcement and the courtroom. Don’t miss this one.
