About this listen
When the legal system fails to convict an abuser, what do you do?
Meet Assistant District Attorney Lettie Portman, a sex-crimes prosecutor whose past demands justice. When a 14-year-old girl is savagely attacked by her mother's live-in boyfriend, Lettie is called to the hospital. There, she meets a sweet young girl whose only goal is to go to school and come home to a safe environment. But mom's boyfriend makes the girl's world anything but safe. Soon, the abuse gets worse, and Lettie, the prosecutor, goes to the grand jury with the case. Two juries later, the abuser is still loose on the streets.
Lettie is no stranger to abuse. She takes matters into her own hands.
Will Lettie's own past interfere with her prosecution of what should be San Diego's Most Wanted? Will she be able to make peace with her own abuse and move on to become the hard-hitting prosecutor the young girl deserves right now? Is hope on the horizon?

I really like the narrator. The story is disjointed. Lettie has her own issues going on that have nothing to do with the main story.

My new favorite legal thriller!
So glad Ellsworth took up writing. This legal thriller is packed full of enough legal details and suspense that this book moves along quickly. Keep a snack and refreshment with you because you won’t want to stop reading to take a break.

Good.. but
This was a good book. Kept me interested from the beginning until she continued to prosecute and have coffee after her son went missing? I thought maybe I missed something and it was a flashback? But no. Just didn’t seem plausible.
