A civil rights case for justice turns to murder
The city has been tormenting Pastor Louis LeRoy for years, prohibiting him from selling second-hand furniture at garage sales to raise money for the poor, and harassing him for violating their landscaping and storage ordinances. This culminates in a raid by code enforcement officials and police, where LeRoy is removed from his own home by gunpoint. Lawyer Brent Marks takes on his civil rights case, and LeRoy is subsequently accused of murdering a city councilman.
What critics are saying about the Lawyer Brent Marks Legal Thriller Series:
"Kenneth Eade is one of our strongest thriller authors on the scene and the fact that he draws his stories from the contemporary philosophical landscape is very much to his credit." Grady Harp, Literary Aficionado
"A truly suspenseful read in which the truth is not always what it appears to be; fantastic to-read for any lover of legal thrillers." IndTale Magazine
"Packed with delightful twists and turns, its real surprise lies in an unexpected conclusion that neatly sums up events without a predictable path being taken. This makes for a gem of a read for courtroom drama and mystery fans used to the clues adding up to one direction. "Midwest Book Review
"Eade is hitting readers where they hurt--he does not allow prejudice, beliefs, corrupt activities, etc., to go unnoticed. He attacks them, hoping to teach. If not, to force us to face reality." GA Bixler Reviews

"I have now read several Marks novels,and have thoroughly enjoyed them. As British who spent many years as a senior detective in London, I never cease to be amazed by the aberrations in the U.S. legal system which in criminal cases seem to lean in favour of the prosecution. Eade's legal expertise and natural ability in putting pen to paper, his sense of compassion and hatred of discrimination shine through." John Jones
"Only good things to say about this author. As an avid reader of crime thrillers I strongly recommend all of his books" Linda Comeaux
The Brent Marks series is almost consistently excellent." A. Mockus
"I have no words to describe this novel, believe me when I say that this a captivating read, rich in dialogues and descriptions that you won't stop reading until you reach the very end. I wasn't expecting that ending and it makes me love the book even more." Xalin
