Madison is attending Harvard and studying to become a lawyer, following in the footsteps of her idol and professor Judge Kathryn Conroy. Coming from similar backgrounds, the Judge sees potential in Madison and offers her an internship position in her office.

When Madison’s brother Danny is arrested for suspicion of selling drugs and pressured to plead guilty, she’s surprised to hear Judge Conroy is working with crooked cops to make him the fall guy. Accepting the intern position, Madison plans to learn the Judge’s secrets to help her brother. But a chain of events bring the two women together in an unlikely partnership while the story unfolds between two POVs.

This was a pretty solid legal suspense drama, I found myself intrigued by both women and the tough decisions they had to make to save their loved ones. I liked how we got to understand Kathryn from her flashback chapters, the bigger mobster picture gave tension to the story and made me root for both of them.

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for an advance copy to review.
