Publisher's Summary

From the people who brought you Netflix's Unbelievable.

One juror changed the verdict. What if she was wrong?

Ten years ago we made a decision together....

Fifteen-year-old Jessica Silver, heiress to a billion-dollar fortune, vanishes on her way home from school. Her teacher, Bobby Nock, is the prime suspect. It's an open and shut case for the prosecution and a quick conviction seems all but guaranteed.

Until Maya Seale, a young woman on the jury, persuades the rest of the jurors to vote not guilty: a controversial decision that will change all of their lives forever.

Ten years later, one of the jurors is found dead and Maya is the prime suspect.

The real killer could be any of the other 10 jurors. Is Maya being forced to pay the price for her decision all those years ago?

Bit dull

This was an interesting book of a subject I know not much about. The characters are interesting and story good it’s just rather slow and dull.

Holdout Keeps Reader Holding On

Sufficiently entertaining story, nice character development; a sudden rush to exciting denouement. Narration feels forced.
