Publisher Description
One word can save a life - or destroy it.
Revelle Lee interprets for others - defendants, witnesses, victims. But when she bends a testimony to secure what she believes is a just verdict, she crosses an invisible line.
Now, stalked by threats, Revelle might lose everything – even her son.
Robinson delivers a fresh, ingenious spin on courtroom suspense. The Interpreter turns language itself into a weapon, exposing how justice can hinge on a single word.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Courtroom dramas are 10 a penny but this thriller comes at things from an appealingly fresh perspective—that of the court interpreter. For Revelle Lee, who speaks 10 languages, everything hinges on her words, as she translates crucial evidence from foreign witnesses in trials. So what happens if she gets those words wrong, accidentally…or on purpose? It’s a delicious premise which kicks off a frenetic plot, as Revelle juggles her workload, murky secrets from her past and becoming an adoptive mother to a six-year-old boy. Things get a teensy bit far-fetched at times but it’s all good fun.
