My thoughts
I've only read two other Eddie Flynn books by this author and enjoyed both. This one was so good. It kept me turning the pages to find out what was coming next. How was Flynn going to get this woman out of the situation. How would he prove her innocence..... Then what about his ex-wife and her husband. What would become of them...
Two cases. Both playing havoc on Eddie Flynn's nerves. Of course he could only handle one since they would both be tried at the same time. But his associates had things under control. All should work out fine.
Eddie is defending a young woman named Elly Parker. Elly is accused of killing her husband of only six months and her longtime best friend. Elly had caught them in bed together. It went out viral on social media. Heard and viewed by millions of her followers. And him.
Elly always does an random act of kindness and urges her followers to do the same. Daily. But on this day her RAK does not exactly go as planned. Elly ends up in jail for murder. She did help someone. She didn't know he was setting her up. She didn't know that she was suppose to die too.
If you ever find yourself in need of a good lawyer you go to Eddie Flynn. He fights a good fight. Maybe a little crooked in places but he does fight for his clients. Eddie is the best.
I loved how this story played. How the characters interacted with each other and with the bad man/men. How the importance of family is shown throughout. This author is a terrific writer. He throughs you a story/case and does not let you sink. You have everything in front of you to hold your interest.
This book did have two cases going on. Eddie played a part in each. He always gives it his all.
Thank you NetGalley and Atria Books for this ARC.
I would give it more than five stars if possible. It's that good.
About
SHE HELPED A PERFECT A STRANGER. SHE DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS THE PERFECT KILLER...
Elly Parker had everything.
Perfect husband. Perfect apartment. Perfect friends and the perfect job.
As an internet celebrity - famed for her random acts of kindness - everyone knew it.
So when a betrayal causes her to lose it all, millions of people are watching.
But even at her lowest, Elly will always help someone in need.
Which makes her the perfect target for a sadistic game.
Because as she soon learns, you can never trust a stranger - and a seemingly random encounter plunges her into a nightmare worse than she ever imagined.
The only person she can turn to is conman turned trial lawyer Eddie Flynn, who must take on a case where nothing is what it seems. With the most cruelly ingenious mind manipulating events from the shadows, everyone is in danger - including Eddie and his family.
