Lisa Scottoline, the #1 bestselling author of What Happened to the Bennetts, presents another pulse-pounding domestic thriller about family, justice, and the lies that tear us apart.
TJ Devlin is the charming disappointment in the prominent Devlin family, all of whom are lawyers at their highly successful firm—except him. After a stint in prison and rehab for alcoholism, TJ can’t get hired anywhere except at the firm, in a make-work job with the title of investigator.
But one night, TJ’s world turns upside down after his older brother John confesses that he murdered one of their clients, an accountant he’d confronted with proof of embezzlement. It seems impossible coming from John, the firstborn son and Most Valuable Devlin.
TJ plunges into the investigation, seizing the chance to prove his worth and save his brother. But in no time, TJ and John find themselves entangled in a lethal web of deception and murder. TJ will fight to save his family, but what he learns might break them first.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A seemingly upstanding family turns out to be anything but in this gripping legal thriller. Youngest son TJ Devlin doesn’t fit in. As a recovering alcoholic with a criminal record, he’s worlds apart from his siblings and parents with their fancy law firm. But after a shocking revelation from his brother, TJ gets thrown headfirst into a dark and sinister world filled with murder, chaos, and a spiralling pharmaceutical conspiracy which threatens to derail him completely. Best-selling author Lisa Scottoline seamlessly blends tense legal and family drama, hurtling us through layers of deceit that TJ is also desperately trying to understand. We loved exploring the tense relationships between the family members, who seem hell-bent on destroying each other. Audiobook superstar Edoardo Ballerini perfectly embodies them all, especially the complex and multifaceted TJ with all his raw emotions and pain. This is a suspenseful and well-crafted thriller with a lot of heart.
