My rating: ππππ
This was my first Rachel Dylan legal suspense, and it won’t be my last.
I enjoyed all the legal facts, for example the discovery, which is usually a big part of a trial, was realistically portrayed. The suspense and danger give the reader the feeling that someone wants something to be hidden, to reveal small evidence of what it could be, keep the danger and pace fast.
The side characters also faced a few ethical challenges in trying to do everything to win their case, versus being ethical.
Kate’s struggle to also keep a friendship but doing what was right also felt realistic.
I enjoyed this legal suspense and am looking forward to the next book in the series.

About the book:
In the biggest case of her career, attorney Kate Sullivan is tapped as lead counsel to take on Mason Pharmaceutical because of a corporate cover-up related to its newest drug. After a whistleblower dies, Kate knows the stakes are much higher than her other lawsuits.
Former Army Ranger turned private investigator Landon James is still haunted by mistakes made while serving overseas. Trying to forget the past, he is hired by Kate to look into the whistleblower's allegation and soon suspects that the company may be engaging in a dangerous game for profit. He also soon finds himself falling for this passionate and earnest young lawyer.
Determined not to make the same mistakes, he's intent on keeping Kate safe, but as the case deepens, it appears someone is willing to risk everything—even murder—to keep the case from going to trial.
