Prosecutor Ivy Monroe never expected the sealed file to resurface. She never expected the DNA match to hit. And she never expected the killer to be protected by the sheriff, the judge, and the most powerful men in the parish.
This isn't a cold case. It's a live conspiracy and they'll kill to keep it buried.
Armed with a single witness, hidden recordings, and evidence they thought was destroyed, Ivy steps into a trial where:
Every ruling is rigged.
Every juror is watched.
Every step closer to the verdict is a step closer to her grave.
The courtroom is loaded. The town is watching. And the system that failed once is ready to fail again unless Ivy can burn it down first.
Cold Case, Hot Verdict is a relentless Southern legal thriller packed with:
Forensic twists that flip justice upside down
Small-town power games and political blackmail
A fearless prosecutor on the edge of ruin
A final verdict you'll never see coming
