Confession

Contempt #3 / 4
by Michael Cordell
Confession (Contempt #3) by Michael Cordell
Unrated

The Third Book in the Bestselling Legal Thriller Series, Contempt

He got the revenge he had been looking for. Now he must confess to the one he loves the most.

Thane is haunted by the man he has become. After being framed for a murder he didn’t commit and landing on death row, he was finally able to prove his innocence. But the anger drove him to seek revenge, and now Thane has to grapple with the fact that he’s not the innocent man he used to be.

When his wife tries to help a young sex worker accused of murdering a popular university football coach, Thane gets the opportunity to do good by exposing a ring of corruption that has been festering for decades. But this time, there’s no hope of winning the case because his client already confessed to the murder.

Thane faces mounting pressure from the university, business tycoons, and a public that idolizes the coach. But the most dangerous threat comes from his client’s pimp, a ruthless psychopath named Stick, whom Thane and his team crossed paths with during their last trial. Stick’s brutal methods make it clear that he’s willing to kill again to keep his name out of the trial, and that killing could include Thane’s wife and unborn daughter.

The only way Thane can keep his family safe is to get a plea deal for his client, but she won’t be silenced—she rejects the plea deal and demands the public hear the truth.

Thane will have to use all the cunning he has to keep himself and his client out of prison once again.
