About this listen

 HE TRUSTS HIS LAWYER WITH HIS LIFE . . . HE SHOULDN'T. For fans of Steve Cavanagh, Linwood Barclay and Gillian McAllister, this is the latest novel from the master of the moral dilemma, Jack Jordan.

'A masterclass in misdirection. Smart, stylish, taut and twisting. Conviction is Jack Jordan’s best yet' Chris Whitaker

'You'll be swept away on a thrilling ride that starts from the very first page’ Janice Hallett

‘Immersive, visual writing with twist after twist turning the screw tighter with ever page’ Jo Callaghan

Wade Darling stands accused of killing his wife and teenage children as they slept and burning their house to the ground.

When the case lands on barrister Neve Harper’s desk, she knows it could make her career.

A matter of days before the case, as Neve is travelling home for the night, she is approached by a man. He tells her she must throw the case or the secret about her husband’s disappearance will be revealed. Failing that, he will kill everyone she cares about, until she does as she is told.

Neve must make a choice – go against every principle she has ever had, or the people she loves will die.

Critic reviews

‘No one crafts a dilemma quite like Jack Jordan. Conviction is a tour de force of a legal thriller that will have you guessing at every turn and then gasping when the plot inevitably catches you unawares. His characters are beautifully and shockingly flawed yet so vividly drawn you just can’t help investing in them – and if you’re anything like I was, you'll be swept away on a thrilling ride that starts from the very first page’ Janice Hallett

'A masterclass in misdirection. Smart, stylish, taut and twisting. Conviction is Jack Jordan’s best yet' Chris Whitaker

'Jack Jordan goes from strength to strength with this expertly written tale of retribution and blackmail. Woven with Jack’s trademark moral dilemma, this is a book where the line between good and bad is never as obvious as it seems. Loved it!' Sam Holland

'Verdict is in - Jack Jordan is officially the king of the moral dilemma. Conviction is an edge-of-your-seat thriller that doesn’t relent until the very last sentence' Laure Van Rensburg

'Raced through Conviction by the talented Jack Jordan.Tense and fast paced, this is a definite pre-order!' Karen Hamilton

'I loved every minute of this thrilling read. It combines the best of Sarah Vaughan and John Grisham: immersive, visual writing with twist after twist turning the screw tighter with ever page. Take a bow Jack "jeopardy" Jordan' Jo Callaghan

Kept my attention from start to finish

I really enjoyed this apart from one tiny thing. The constant use of 'sat' instead of 'sitting' and the use of 'stood' instead of 'standing'. I know it's widely accepted now but it grated on me every single time I was sitting 😉 here and had to hear the incorrect version. 😞
Other than that it was brilliant and really enjoyable.

Enjoyable Murder Case

I love thrillers and a legal drama so perhaps I was expecting a lot, it was ok, I liked the premise, end was satisfying, narration pretty good and I enjoyed her perspective . It was repetitive on occasion, a bit unrealistic and didn’t really convey the huge stress such events would carry, she seemed to get over it pretty well.

It’s was ok,

It was a good story but with some annoying errors. The constant use of ‘sat’ instead of ‘sitting’ and ‘stood’ instead of ‘standing’ was really annoying. The reference to the need for someone to be guilty ‘without a shadow of a doubt’ instead of ‘beyond reasonable doubt’ was shoddy. It’s probably a bit pedantic but once I heard these things their frequency started to take over and spoil my enjoyment. The author is imaginative, it was an interesting storyline, but a bit more attention to detail (or some decent copy editing) might improve things.

Sitting not Sat !!!!
