About this audiobook

When a coed falls prey to a sadistic murderer, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Caitlin "Caity" Cassidy and Special Agent Atticus Spenser are called in to testify-one for the defense, one for the prosecution. With warring approaches to justice, these two rivals have been butting heads for years-both inside the courtroom and out. And at first, this case appears to be no different.

But when a brutal attack leaves the accused man dead and Caity in critical condition, petty differences take a backseat to saving lives. As the lone survivor, Caity knows too much, and the killer-a madman calling himself the Man in the Maze-is coming back for round two. Now Caity and Spense must join forces to uncover the killer's identity before Caity's time-and luck-runs out.

It has just the right amount of suspense and romance. I loved the two main characters and was glad that their story is not rushed. I will definitely read this series just to see their relationship blossom.On the suspense side, the story is fast paced, dark, riveting and difficult to put down.I can't wait for more in the series.

    Judgment by Carey Baldwin is a 2014 Witness Impulse publication. I was provided a copy of this book for review purposes by the publisher and Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. Jeepers! This book is the definition of psychological thriller. From the first page to the last I was riveted. I was completely immersed in this world, in Spence and Caitlin's investigation and their romance too. A tense, edge of your seat, vivid world of suspense with incredibly well drawn characters. It's dark place that Caitlin will enter along with her new partner, Spence. Caitlin is no stranger to dark places, but this time the darkness cold swallow her whole.The setup: Caitlin watched her father's execution for a crime she was positive he did not commit. Now she is a forensic psychiatrist working non-stop to prevent innocent people from going to prison. After an analysis of a dark , creepy suspect, Caitlin visits his attorney, the same attorney that defended her father unsuccessfully, at the courthouse to explain she will not be able to testify on his behalf. Before she can get things cleared away, shots are fired. Caitlin is wounded and an old friend, Atticus Spencer saves her life. They soon learn a deadly game is being played by a “death club” and it's possible the case could somehow tie in with Caitlin's father and his case. The FBI and detectives have a specific way of working a case that doesn't really jibe with Caitlin and her work, which is designed to prevent people from giving false confessions or railroaded by the overzealous investigators. This puts her in direct conflict with Spence. Spence is a character that grew on me as I got deeper into the story. His “handicap” has him constantly fighting an inner war and sometimes he loses the battle by forgetting to turn on his filter. Caitlin is his soft spot, but he still speaks his mind, and occasionally leaves her out of the loop for fear or being reigned in for not following protocol at all times. The author did a wonder job of creating these two characters, each with their own flaws and demons to fight. I took sides, got frustrated with both of them at times, but cheered them on every step of the way. I am impressed with the author's ability to have these characters develop within the story all while scaring us half to death with one of the most creepy cases I have read about in awhile. This story has a very dark tone in many ways. Wrongfully convicted people, scarred survivors, a possible vigilante, a possible serial killer, a host of horrific crimes and a few irritating cops on the side all mesh together and kept me guessing and turning pages at the speed of light and sound. The other thing that impressed me was how emotional I became. I actually felt a lump in my throat on few occasions thinking about how Caitlin was robbed of so many precious moments in her life and now she has a tough time with emotions and relationships, plus is still plagued by lurid dreams. I also had a little book crush on Spencer. So, hopefully he will be able to convince Caitlin there really is a such a thing as true love.... but, before they can think about that it looks as though another explosive case has their name on it. I was really invested in these people so I am eagerly awaiting a second novel featuring these characters.Do you like “keep you up at night” psychological thrillers? Check. Like Romantic suspense? Check. Like Mysteries? Check. This book was just my style and if you like one or all of these genres, you do not want to miss this one. Highly recommended!!
