The Verdict

Alabama Law Book 3

By: Charles Throne

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A prosecutor accused of murder. A defense attorney chasing a truth no one wants revealed. And a verdict that could expose the most powerful men in Alabama.

When Assistant District Attorney Kelly Roberts is arrested for the brutal death of colleague Saki Cordon, the case appears airtight. The victim died in Kelly’s home. The evidence points in only one direction. And Kelly herself cannot remember what happened.
Veteran defense attorney Ryan Ashcroft takes the case knowing it may be unwinnable. But as the investigation unfolds, troubling questions begin to surface.
Why was the victim meeting with powerful political insiders days before her death? Why does a private club connected to the city’s elite keep appearing in the timeline? And why does every path Ashcroft follows lead toward people who seem untouchable?
The deeper he digs, the more dangerous the case becomes. Witnesses are threatened. Evidence vanishes. And the closer Ashcroft gets to the truth, the clearer it becomes that Kelly Roberts may have been framed.
In Alabama, power protects its own.
To bring the truth into the open, Ryan Ashcroft will need to risk everything—because some secrets were never meant to reach a courtroom.
