When two sisters each call 911 reporting the other has brutally murdered their father, who is to be believed?
I have never picked up an Eddie Flynn novel but found this to be an easy transition into this series. Eddie was a great protagonist and the twists in this novel kept me on the edge of my seat! The reveals were satisfying and I’m very interested in continuing on in this series.
Highly recommend to fans of legal thrillers!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ 4 stars
Synopsis: Sophia and Alexandra are sisters that have been through a lot. Their father is murdered and each one blames the other. Now Eddie Flynn has to figure out who really did it?
What I liked: these novels are so fun fir me to read. I devoured it in a couple of days. Eddie Flynn is a con man turned lawyer and loved to see his crew origin story. The story premise was so unique with the two sisters accused of their dads murder and pitting against each other in court. He drew each as opposite of each other which added to the fun. Of course Eddie always has tricks and loved what he did in this book. The subplot which I will not spoiled but had the best ending. Loved it.

Thank you to Netgalley and Atria Books for this ARC! I had so much fun reading this.
Frank is a rich man who is murdered and the 2 main suspects are his daughters. Sofia and Alexandra. They are both blaming the other sister. The girls both definitely have their own issues.
We get to follow Eddie Flynn and Kate Brooks as the defence lawyers who are representing them in the biggest case they’ve seen in a long time.
It was such a cool thing having a point of view of the killer, not knowing who it is. I found myself searching for the smallest details in her chapters so I could try figuring it out on my own. I was guessing until the end.
The lawyer talk was so fun to read too. I loved the court proceedings and seeing the evidence laid out for us as the reader while knowing what we know from the killers POV. I couldn’t stop reading once I got to the trial part of the book.
I know this is the 5th book in this Eddie Flynn series, but in my opinion this can be easily read as a stand alone. Definitely recommend!

Ich bin nicht gemacht für Thriller und Krimis, ich bin doch noch klein
:( das war ganz gruselig
Der main character ist ganz unsympathisch und eigentlich alle anderen auch bis auf henry und clarence (der Hund). der macker ist so auf krampf anders als alle anderen und so komisch feministisch. Es wirkt wie ein self insert des Autors
Na ja der Plot war auf jeden Fall sehr spannend, zwischendurch hat es sich ein bisschen gezogen, aber das Ende war wirklich krass spannend

I’m a sucker for a good police/law procedural novel, even if it’s not entirely realistic. In this story, two sisters are on trial for the 🔪 of their father. They were both at the scene. They were both covered in his blood. They both left trace evidence on the body. They both called 911 and accused the other sister. Who is telling the truth?
I’m usually pretty good at figuring out the twist and the final reveal in these books, but this one kept me guessing the whole time. There was a fifty-fifty shot that the jury, and the reader, would identify the guilty sister.
