About this listen

In Seymour Wishman’s riveting novel about law, murder, and twisted justice, a woman accused of an unthinkable crime must put her fate in the hands of an enemy.

When it comes to establishing reasonable doubt in the minds of a New York jury, defense attorney Michael Roehmer is the best in the business - and no one knows this better than rape victim Lisa Altman. She sat helplessly in the courtroom as Roehmer, smoothly and without mercy, shot gaping holes in her testimony. As a result, the man who brutally assaulted her walked free. Right and wrong, guilt and innocence, mean nothing to Roehmer. For him, winning is everything.

Now Altman is sitting at a different table: Her rapist has been savagely murdered and she’s accused of the heinous crime. Condemned by the evidence and with nowhere else to turn, the young actress needs the best legal help she can find. She needs Roehmer, because suddenly her freedom - and her very life - hang precariously in the balance.

With a thoroughly unlikeable protagonist, I found that I did not care about the story and its characters. The ludicrous events culminate in an entirely predictable ending. Not recommended.

Rather tiresome

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend it to friends who are fans of courtroom drama.

What did you like best about this story?

A good amount of suspense and the narration, which was gritty and realistic.

Have you listened to any of Noah Michael Levine’s other performances? How does this one compare?

No, never.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It didn't make me laugh or cry, but it did keep me in suspense for the first two thirds.

Any additional comments?

It's very well paced and a good book.

Fairly predictable...

I don't usually give up but I got to the end of chapter 3 and realised I'd stopped listening half way through chapter 2. The narrator's style didn't engage me.

Couldn't get through it

Got halfway through first chapter and abandoned it. The narrator sounds as dimwitted as the content.

Awful

Well, it was my fault for not reading the reviews. It had such an interesting premise, I was hoping for some deep moral questions, but ended up with a shallow, disjointed and not researched story. Women are portrayed horribly, there's bunch of unimportant characters and side stories, MC is trash, nothing made sense. The narrator was also a little hard to listen to, especially when narrating women. The only reason I finished it is some kind of mazohistic tendencies in me.

Horrible

Awful.
Terrible narration.
Impossible story. Totally unbelievable, throw together, disjointed and un-researched.
I’ve only given it one star because l cannot give any less, I have to give one star to enable a review to warn others!
I’m really surprised Audible even consider offering it on the ‘plus catalogue’.

Don’t waste your time.
