    About this ebook

    One thread pulled, everything unravels. 

    Sheila Harrison Grant is the first African American woman ever nominated to the federal bench in Cleveland. But when her thirteen-year-old daughter Olivia shares a family secret with a well-meaning guidance counselor, she sets the wheels in motion to feed a partisan senate's opposition, threatening her mother's position…and both of their lives.   

    Once an ambitious young law student with promise, Casey Cort made the mistake of 
    crossing a classmate from a prominent and influential family. Now she works as an unfulfilled, faceless cog in a broken legal system.  

    When fate gives Casey a second chance, she has to set aside her lack of faith in justice and find the strength to fight for those with nowhere else to turn.  

    In this installment of the Casey Cort series,  Aime Austin—a former trial lawyer in Cleveland—weaves a tale that blends the best of today's top legal thrillers with the heart and soul of women's fiction, in a story ripped from real-world headlines.

      I got this book for free from librarything.com giveaway The book overall wasn't bad. Although the first around 50 pages were boring and didn't make sense due to not necessary long introduction to characters, after that the story took a faster pace and got interesting. It was an easy read appropriate for the evenings, when I didn't want to think a lot but wasn't after some totally cheap literature either.What made this book just a 3 star book was that I couldn't accept the message provided in the book. It was told and presented that the story was about hard working afro american woman, who Works hard to become a judge and injustices of the court system. C'mon - the book was actually about drunkard mom, who cheats her husband and neglects her daughter and gets away with it just because she is Black and she is judge. I mean - do I really have to forgive someone just because of his/her colour of the skin? Should I feel pitty for that woman even if she lies chronicaly and doesn't admit her own faults? I don't think so. Besides this book teaches us to ignore court orders just because you think they are not right. Of course there are not worst form of ruling than the democracy, apart from all the other forms. What's the moral of that?The ending also ruined the story as the main character just disappeared from the last sections. Meaning: all the fuss about someone who is not important enough to appear in the last 50 pages of the book. Also toleration of the kidnapping wasn't the thing I would like to see at the end. So my verdict would be - read it if you want an easy read, but try not to take this book seriously.
