Description
PREORDER JAMES COMEY'S BREATHTAKING NEW LEGAL THRILLER RED VERDICT NOW!
New York lawyer Nora Carleton faces her biggest case yet in this gripping legal thriller and Times Book of the Month from the former director of the FBI, James Comey.
EVEN FREE SPEECH HAS ITS PRICE.
Nora Carleton is back working as a federal prosecutor in New York, but her city is in turmoil. Extremism is on the rise, funded from the shadows and growing in momentum online, with one person in particular fanning the flames.
Radio and podcast host Samuel Buchanan uses his platform to spread disinformation and incite violence – and his mission is succeeding, with disturbances, clashes, and hate crimes rising across the country.
As the threat of a major attack grows, and a United Nations rally is targeted, it seems Nora is the only one who can stop the spread. She must successfully convince a jury that some speech should be treated as a crime – or see her country torn apart.
A powerful novel about the realities facing modern America, perfect for fans of Grisham, Connelly and Coben.
'Comey's best book yet' The Times
Reviews for James Comey
