The Inevitable Witness

A GRIPPING LEGAL THRILLER FROM A CELEBRATED L.A. DEFENSE LAWYER WHO KNOWS HOW THE SYSTEM REALLY WORKS

Bobby Earl is the guy you call when it’s time to fix bayonets and go to trial. But when he’s tapped to defend a notorious safecracker arrested for killing a decorated LAPD police officer, Earl’s own life is suddenly in danger. Earl must dive into LA’s dangerous underworld and battle a court system in which the news media and politics corrupt the wheels of justice.

“Authentic! A shrewd, worthy protagonist, surrounded by exceptional characters.”
