Rules of Evidence

By: Jay Brandon

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

African-American attorney Raymond Boudro believes Mike Stennett is not only a dirty cop but a racist. Raymond has come close to proving the rapist part in court. When Stennett is arrested in the beating death of a black suspect, he comes to Raymond to try to hire him. Surprisingly, Raymond Boudro takes the case, not because he's eager to defendant Stennett, but because he needs to know the truth, and the only certain way to find it is to be inside the case. The twists and turns of the case leaving him uncertain of his own opinion, right up to the end. For Becky Schirhart, this is her first big prosecution. She looks at it just as a trial. Once they go to court and Raymond starts ignoring the rules of evidence, she realizes it's something more. "A wild novel that has its own surprises and conclusions... The courtroom dialogue and drama are some of the finest I have seen in recent years." -- Lincoln Journal-Star. "Suspenseful and savvy in its portrayal of subtle legal strategies in and out of the courtroom..." -- Publishers Weekly
