Never Lost A Case
Never Lost a Case
A Comedic Drama by Author Stephanie Y. Garrett
Introduction
District Attorney Jefflee Avery and Defense Attorney Bracee McQuarter have spent thirty five years battling each other in courtrooms across the state-yet neither has ever lost a case. Their rivalry is legendary, their tempers unmatched, and their theatrics...
When a forty year old cold case suddenly resurfaces, the two legal titans are dragged into the fight of their careers.
In a courtroom that becomes a battlefield, Avery prosecutes with the intensity of a man chasing a legacy, while Bracee defends with the stubbornness of someone who refuses to let an innocent man be railroaded. And in the process, they end up prosecuting and defending each other just as fiercely.
Presiding over the chaos is Judge Lacey, a no nonsense, zero tolerance force of nature who does not allow yelling, disrespect, or foolishness in her courtroom-three things Avery and Bracee specialize in.
She bangs her gavel so often the bailiff keeps spare mallets under the bench.
The twist: An eyewitness appears out of nowhere, granted immunity for his testimony... and he might be the real killer. His memory is suspiciously selective, and his sudden desire to "cooperate" raises every eyebrow in the courthouse. As Bracee digs deeper into what really happened decades ago, he uncovers cracks in the case that point toward a wrongful conviction. Meanwhile, Avery-determined to keep his perfect record-throws up every legal roadblock he can find, invent, or shout into existence. Before the trial even reaches closing arguments, the attorneys and their team have been jailed for contempt, including spouses."
What follows is a whirlwind of twists, grudges, alliances, and accidental confessions that lead to a secret truth buried for forty years-a truth that will test loyalties, shatter reputations, and finally reveal who really killed Troy Justine.
