The Judge

By: Bailey, Robert

Defend the enemy or lose everything.

Attorney Max Ringo fought her way back from drug addiction to reclaim her career--and the son she nearly lost. Now the past returns with an impossible demand.

Max's former best friend, Judge Caroline Parker, has been arrested for murdering her secret lover, a decorated general deep in Huntsville, Alabama's defense contracting world. Cornered and desperate, Caroline blackmails Max into defending her, dangling secrets that would bring them both down.

As the case unfolds, Max discovers that the murder is only one piece of a conspiracy stretching from Huntsville to the highest levels of government. Every witness has an agenda, every ally a price. And every step toward the truth puts Max and her son in greater danger.

With the courtroom closing in and corruption boiling beneath each revelation, Max must decide how far she'll go for the woman she despises. Because winning may be the only way to save her son...and herself.
