About this listen

Twelve-year-old Frankie Bishop is a model kid: quiet and bright. So everyone, especially his family, is shocked when he's arrested for drug possession - and horrified when he's sentenced to juvenile detention at Eldridge Academy. His uncle, Bruce Kantor of the Help Innocent Prisoners Project, wants to help but knows he's too close to the case.

His associate Dani Trumball has family worries of her own to deal with, but she knows Bruce wouldn't ask for help without cause. Just as she and her team begin to investigate, the case gets even thornier: Frankie is missing, and evidence points to an Eldridge cover-up.

As the FBI launches a hunt for the boy, Dani knows something isn't right. Why would a minor's first offense earn such a harsh punishment? Unconvinced by the court documents, Dani is dogged in her pursuit of the truth that will save Frankie's future - if he still has one.

My thoughts.

I have read every book in this series and all of them have been fantastic, this one is no acception. An amazing book by a very talented author, Dani is a fantastic Character who won't give up on making sure the truth comes out and does everything she can to assist her clients. She's also got a personal bit of news she's dealing with during this case as well but the author still kept her determination to prove the truth in a case the same. Another great offering by this author and I can't wait for the next book in the series which I will be starting later today once I finish work.

Another amazing offering.

I had read a couple of other books by Marti Green in this series and enjoyed them. Unfortunately, this one didn't really hold my interest very well and, in the end, seemed pointless. It took a long time to get to a pretty straight forward ending. The Narrator was ok, but not my favourite by a long way.

Seemed pointless
