Devil's Outcry

By Martinez

A respected educator is accused of unspeakable crimes against the children he once tried to protect. The evidence appears devastating. The community has already reached its verdict.

But accusation is not proof.

When veteran defense attorney Anthony Martinez agrees to represent Jacob Morales, he steps into a case few lawyers would want and even fewer people believe should be defended.

As Anthony begins testing the prosecution's case, questions emerge beneath what once seemed certain. In the courtroom, reputations, careers, and lives collide as witnesses take the stand and twelve jurors are asked to separate accusation from evidence.

Drawing on author Leonard A. Martinez's decades of experience as a Colorado trial attorney, Devil's Outcry takes readers inside the strategy, pressure, uncertainty, and human consequences of a criminal trial where the verdict seems predetermined before the first witness is called.

How do you defend someone the world has already condemned?

Devil's Outcry is the first novel in the Anthony Martinez Legal Thriller Series.
