"Jagger creates an exciting blend of police procedural and legal thriller that recalls the early works of Scott Turow and Lisa Scottoline." (Library Journal)

Newly licensed attorney Aspen Wilde joins Denver’s largest law firm to discover that an attractive, up-and-coming associate mysteriously vanished several months earlier and is presumed dead. She secretly embarks upon a brilliant but dangerous plan to trap the killer, only to find herself increasingly intertwined in a complex web of murders involving several different women killed in very different ways.

As she frantically searches for answers, not only to trap the killer but also to keep herself from getting trapped, her hunt collides with the ongoing investigation of Denver homicide detective Nick Teffinger, a man who has strayed into the edgy world of a beautiful suspect to find out if she is a murderer, a target, or something else altogether.

With the stakes suddenly higher than they could have imagined, Aspen and Teffinger find themselves spiraling deeper and deeper into a deadly vortex where nothing is as it seems and time is running out.

Editorial reviews

Equal parts police procedural, slasher, noir, thriller, and law drama, R. J. Jagger's Lawyer Trap is in all aspects a great edge-of-your seat mystery that will keep you guessing till the very end. Nick Teffinger is a Denver homicide detective who is investigating the brutal murders of mysterious women in town and has trouble separating business from pleasure when one of the suspects is a ravishing beauty. Nick's investigation crosses paths with a young lawyer named Aspen's own investigation following the murder of one of her friends. John McLain brings his biting-tough performance to Jagger's terse prose, making this a gripping audiobook that will delight any fan detective fiction.

I absolutely loved this book!!! I didn't have high expectations because I hadn't heard of this author before and it was on the Audible Plus catalogue. Wow, original story and no predictable story lines. I will definitely be sourcing out more books from R J Jagger.

This is the first R.J Jagger book I've ever listened to or read and I really enjoyed it! It's very well narrated and it's great that it's free for Audible subscribers. Full of twists and turns from the beginning to the end! A bit gruesome in parts too but expect the unexpected!

I couldnt even finish. I was enjoying the story so its a shame, but the narrators voice was so bad I couldnt push through. The last word of every sentence is so drawn out its too distracting.

Narrators voice unbearable
