Winter Reading - False Convictions Review & Giveaway {CLOSED}

Pin It
False Convictions

by Tim Green

In bestselling author Tim Green's latest thriller, Casey Jordan returns-seeking justice in a small town riddled with . . . FALSE CONVICTIONS Casey is counting on an open-and-shut case, a sure success for her first effort with the Freedom Project, the renowned charity group dedicated to helping exonerate wrongfully convicted prisoners. Not only is the Freedom Project giving Casey the chance to help innocent people, but its founder, Robert Graham, is offering Casey a one-million-dollar annual pledge to her legal clinic for taking on just two jobs a year. Her first assignment is to revive the case of Dwayne Hubbard, an indigent black man serving a life sentence for the rape and murder of a college student seventeen years ago. Using DNA evidence, Casey expects to easily prove Hubbard's innocence. Yet when she arrives in rural Auburn, New York, she meets immediate and aggressive resistance.
Tormented by death threats and assassination attempts, Casey investigates a prosecution apparently rife with lies. From the judge, the lawyers, the jury, to the police, she traces a web of corruption surrounding the destruction of one young man. But in all the chaos, Casey's hardest challenge may be just staying alive.
This is the first I have heard of or read a book by Tim Green. I have to say, his writing style is right on! Every single page of this thriller left me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next, who would get hurt, who done it, you name it!

False Convictions is an excellent book full of corruption, lies and deceit that will blow your mind! It was a page turner that I could not tear myself to put down until the very last page. Then I wanted more! I would love to see Tim Green keep going with these characters. I think it would make a must read series of books!
