When Jack Newlin comes home to find his wife dead on the floor,
he's convinced he knows who killed her. Determined to shield the
murderer from justice, Jack stages the crime scene so that the
evidence points to him, then calls the police to confess. And to
hammer the final nail in his own coffin, he hires the most
inexperienced lawyer he can find: Mary DiNunzio, a reluctant rookie
employed by Philadelphia law firm Rosato and Associates.
Unfortunately for Jack, hiring Mary could turn out to be a big
mistake. Though inexperienced, Mary senses something amiss and
begins to investigate the crime. Nothing is ever certain until the
final moment of truth. (Kirkus UK)
When Jack Newlin comes home to find his wife dead on the floor of their elegant dining room, he's convinced he knows who killed her – and determined that the murderer should escape detection. Making a split-second decision, he sets about doctoring the evidence in order to frame himself for the crime. And to hammer the final nail in his coffin, he hires the most inexperienced lawyer he can find: Mary DiNunzio of Philadelphia law firm Rosato and Associates.
Unfortunately for Jack, hiring Mary could turn out to be a big mistake. Though inexperienced she doubts his confession. Her ethics and instincts tell her she can't defend a man who wants only one thing – to convict himself. Or can she? Smart, gutsy, and dogged to the last, Mary decides to stick with the case. With help from the most unexpected sources, she sets out to prove what really happened. Because, as any lawyer knows, a case is never as simple as it seems. And nothing is ever certain until the final moment of truth.
"Moment of Truth is an edgy tale, full of surprises."
USA TODAY
"Grisham is fun, but Scottoline is more creative and her latest legal thriller, Moment of Truth, is a fresh addition to the genre…This is a book you pick up and find you can't go to bed until it's finished. Moment of Truth is a thriller that delivers."
SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER
"A carefully crafted tale of immortality, dark secrets and family values gone awry."
NEW YORK POST.
