About this listen
Bestselling author James Grippando’s legendary criminal defense attorney Jack Swyteck is back to defend a single mother accused of kidnapping her own child in a perilous case involving politics and international diplomacy that will test his legal expertise and his marriage.
Jack Swyteck’s new client fled Iran to Miami with her daughter, and has been accused of kidnapping by her husband. The seasoned attorney must not only plan a winning defense. To stop the father from taking the girl back to Tehran, Jack must build a case under international law and prove that returning the child would put her at risk.
But everything in this case isn’t what it seems, and Jack quickly learns that his client is really the child’s aunt and that the biological mother may have been killed by Iran’s morality police. But what role did the father play in his wife’s death, and why is Jack’s wife, FBI Agent Andie Henning, being pressured by her bosses to persuade Jack to drop the case?
Plunging into an investigation unlike any other, Jack must discover who is behind the legal maneuvering and what their interest is. As politics threatens to derail the case and compromise the best interests of the child, Jack and Andie find themselves on opposite sides—with their marriage hanging in the balance. For their relationship to survive, the couple must navigate a treacherous web of deceit that extends from a Miami courthouse to the highest echelons of Washington DC, and spells grave danger at every turn.

Summoned to Washington, DC, for a top-secret briefing, Nathan discovers that he’s the key to a massive foreign intelligence breakthrough. Reading between the lines of a cryptic series of equations, he could open a door straight into the heart of the Kremlin and change the global balance of power forever.

Story
Some people exist in the blessed light of day, but I'm not one of those people. I exist in the bleak grey of a post-twilight world, where the warmth is sucked from the air and the weightless shadows come out to play. I wasn’t always like this, but a year ago something terrible happened, and now I have a darkness inside me.

Boring
I once loved Grippando books. Now each one is more tedious. This one deals with Iran and women there and I just couldn’t get into it. The narrator’s voice is annoying. I’m returning this one.

James Grippando Jonathan Davis and Jack Swyteck 5*
I didn’t realize how much I missed Jack Swyteck until this book came out! As soon as I saw it yesterday on the new release list I bought it immediately and ended up staying up half the night listening to it. Needless to say I was slightly shot today but had to finish. I even listened on the default speed because I wanted it to last. I almost never listen in slo-mo but certain narrators are worth it and Jonathan Davis is one of them. I wish he would do more in the mystery/thriller genre and I really wish Grippando would be just a little more prolific. What’s that saying? If I could get a dollar for every wish I’d never have to work for a living? Sadly I do 😢 but I can still dream!!
This book is a superb legal thriller/court room drama. The premise of this story is that an Iranian woman marries her Iranian
brother-in-law after her sister is murdered by the morality police. She legally adopts her sister’s daughter and then kidnaps her and runs to Miami with the child. She claims it wasn’t the police but the husband who abused both her sister and child that murdered.her sister. There are multiple dramas happening in the background and Swyteck is of course a star lawyer with his wife Andi both fighting and pulling for him the entire time.
But as with ALL Swyteck books, nothing is as it seems. I’m sorry but if you want to find out how this funhouse will turn out you will have to get the book.
In my humble opinion it is worth every penny and then some!
This book has my VERY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!!

The worst courtroom scenes I’ve ever read.
Didn’t like readers pace. Characters stereotypes and not interesting. Author borrows much from Michael Connolly, whose characters are more interesting and who knows how to write courtroom scenes.

Characters who have evolved. You can listen out of order
I am a top fan of narrator, Jonathan Davis. He is so talented. Do not miss him in Sandra Brown’s novel, Mean Streak. This was the book that I had discovered Mr. Davis.
I am thrilled that reviewer Shelley has kept up with this series. See her reviews by clicking on helpful. Also, if you are looking for a good read, click on her name, and it will take you to her listener page and you can see quite a few books that you can put on your wishlist.
This was a tough story as it is so prevalent of this time. This Story was well worth the listening time, and good entertainment. Women have long gotten the Short stick. I can only hope The next time around, women are killing the sabertooth tigers, rather than gathering nuts and berries.
Where are my comments of help?

Very disappointing
Narration was ok but the story was not. Author tried too hard with too many convoluted plot lines. Very disappointed.
