After more than twenty years away from the law, Joe Hennessy is forced back into the courtroom. Trying to save his vineyard after years of drought, Hennessy returns to practice in Charleston, South Carolina–the city he walked away from after the murder of his ten-year-old son. When one of South Carolina’s most powerful men is charged with possessing stolen artwork, Hennessy steps forward to defend him. But as Hennessy digs into the evidence, as he navigates the truth, he finds that the criminal charges are only the start of their problems.

A sad comment on life in America
I was absorbed by the story and so sad at the story line. Excellent narration and I did enjoy the book. Thank you Steve Cavanagh for bringing it to the public. Let’s hope it makes people think.

An amazing book from beginning to end. I didn’t want it to end, there were so many twists and turns that made this book too hard to stop listening. The narrator has done a fabulous job.

The Eddie Flynn Series Keeps Getting Better
Steve has matured greatly as a writer. The first few books in the series were predictable, but enjoyable. The latter ones are far less predictable, and more suspenseful.

Always satisfying
Another Eddie Flynn book that has a winning formula. The storyline is a ripping yarn about a crime with racial background at once requiring the suspension of reality but at the same time sufficiently grounded in detail to be interesting.
If I was critical, it would relate to the neat wrapping up of all issues at the end but the fact is that the ride to that point is enjoyable.
Looking forward to the next Eddie Flynn story, particularly with the growth of other characters around him.

Where to begin
I am a huge fan of Steve Cavanagh books and once I hear Adam Sims voice in narration I cannot stop listening.
Love the Eddy Flynn team of characters I feel like I know them personally. I thought once the story left New York it would loose its appeal. It did not, it was as good if not better than the other books in the series.
