The morning Peach Delgado was gunned down was sunny and quiet in Holyoke. Ginger Daley O’Conner was an unexpected casualty as she bent down to pet the puppy tied outside the clinic.
David Norcross, a federal judge just finished overseeing yet another life sentence. He stops to use the ATM kiosk but when he is distracted by his phone ringing, he steps towards his car. The door closes and he realizes his card is still in the machine and his car keys are on the shelf. He waits around until the beautiful Claire Lindermann comes to his rescue.
Clarence “Moon” Hudson and his wife Sandra are in bed across the hall from their six-month-old baby, Grace when the police issued a no-knock warrant. Moon was arrested and taken into custody for the murder of Peach and Ginger. Judge Norcross will preside over the trial.
The story flows well, and the characters are developed. It is written in the third person point of view. This is the first book in the Judge Norcross Novels. If you enjoy legal thrillers and books by John Grisham, you will like this book.
