'If you like a legal thriller you'll love this!' HARRIET TYCE TO STEAL A MAN'S FREEDOM ALL IT TAKES IS . . . CONVICTION Wade Darling stands accused of killing his wife and teenage children as they slept before burning the family home to the ground. When the case lands on barrister Neve Harper’s desk, she knows it could be the career making case she’s been waiting for. But only if she can prove Wade’s innocence. A matter of days before the case, as Neve is travelling home for the night, she is approached by a man. He tells her she must lose this case or the secret about her own husband’s disappearance will be revealed. Failing that, he will kill everyone she cares about until she follows orders. Neve must make a choice – betray every principle she has ever had by putting a potentially innocent man in prison, or risk putting those she loves in mortal danger. For fans of Steve Cavanagh, Linwood Barclay and Gillian McAllister, introducing the latest novel from the master of the moral dilemma, Jack Jordan.

including a non-binary character is lovely, if they hadn't already been dead before the story even starts, rendering the mention of their identity entirely irrelevant. Would have loved if the step-child instead had been non-binary. this is my second Jack Jordan book and he's two-for-two for having the “bad guys” be foreigners.. which, as a foreigner in the UK, does feel a little uncomfortable.
