About this listen

A Child Lost. A Secret Buried. A Trial That Changes Everything.

When a pregnant woman is brutally attacked and left in a coma, a terrified town demands justice—fast. Police arrest the last person seen with her: nonverbal special-needs man who is caught in the act. Overnight, the case becomes a media firestorm, and the calls for the death penalty grow louder.

Prosecutor Lori Franks is determined to win—no matter the cost.

Years ago, she sought an abortion. Now she’s seeking the ultimate punishment for the man accused of doing the same thing she once tried to do: take an innocent life. But when a routine DNA test exposes a devastating truth—that her own child was switched at birth—Lori is thrust into a custody battle for the baby she once rejected…and cannot imagine losing now.

Defense attorney Danial Solomon has spent years running from his past.

But when he takes the case, he steps into the fight of his life. The deeper he digs, the more he uncovers a tangled web of corruption, deception, and hidden motives—one that places his client, his career, and even his life in grave danger.

As the trial races toward a verdict, Danial must confront not only the broken justice system…but the brokenness inside himself. The truth may set them free—but only if it doesn’t destroy them first.

A Trial of Innocents is a gripping, faith-filled legal thriller packed with moral tension, layered characters, and impossible choices. Perfect for fans of John Grisham, Robert Whitlow, and legal drama with heart, hope, and high stakes.

Already a #1 Amazon Bestseller.

A good listen. The story had an intriguing plot with unexpected twists. I like how the author managed to get the message of salvation through Jesus Christ across.

with God nothing is impossible

This book was brought to life by a multitude of voices bringing each character to life, like a 1980s movie...

A gripping murder mystery with a strong Christian ethic.

It is not possible that this book has been written by the same person that wrote the 1st two books. It is so heavily preaching, it ruins what is also a dreadful story. The first books are written well, interesting characters, believable, a clear christian message but it doesn't interrupt the book itself. The narration of this book, the story and the poor editing are bad enough but I am angry at the gargoyled representation of both the medical profession and the legal one, just to have a medium for preaching.

It should have been made clear at the beginning that this was the entire reason behind the book...to simply go on a rampage to convert people to christianity, and to hell with the methods to get that message across.

Please don't put pen to paper again.....unless you intend to write something worth listening to.

Appalling disguise for just preaching!!!
