The Last Plea Bargain
Summary
“You learn early that you don’t get to prove your case with Boy Scouts and nuns. Yes, convicted felons will say anything to get out of jail, but they also know a lot.” Plea bargains may grease the rails of justice, but for Jamie Brock, prosecuting criminals is not about cutting deals. In her three years as assistant DA, she’s never plea-bargained a case and vows she never will. But when an infamous defense attorney is indicted for murder and devises a way to bring the entire justice system to a screeching halt, Jamie finds herself at a crossroads. One by one, prisoners begin rejecting deals. Prosecutors are overwhelmed, and felons start walking free on technicalities. To break the logjam and convict her nemesis, Jamie must reevaluate every principle that has guided her young career. But she has little choice. To convict the devil, sometimes you have to cut a deal with one of his demons.

Fantastic
A book that has twist, turns and drama without being cliche. Randy Singer has over night become one of my favorite authors. I think Tavia Gilbert's narration is perfect for the character of Jamie and she isn't too shabby with male voices either.
A must read!

Worst genre classification error ever!!!
Audible classifies The Last Plea Bargain as "religious and inspirational" which it most definitely is not; it's not even close! Come on, Audible, you can do better than this. It is a legal mystery/thriller and it is a darned good one almost earning 5 stars. Assistant DA Jamie Brock faces a dilemma in trying a case. She must decide whether protecting the reputation of her now dead dad who was a famous attorney who she adored is more important than convicting a murderer. Tavia Gilbert does a great job narrating.

Wonderfully written and read!
When emotions are the part of the story and some think they are above the law you get a whole lot of different thought processes going on. An awesome inspirational mystery and journey through a Prosecutor's office. Randy Singer has written another super story. Tavia Gilbert is the perfect Narrator for this book.

The last plea bargain
I struggled with this book. I found the narrator/main character to be a bit of a prude, someone I really didn't like. So I struggled to go with her on the story. But it did end with a bit of a twist. And overall was entertaining.
