From the New York Times bestselling author and winner of the Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction, a pulse-pounding thriller that lands Miami attorney Jack Swyteck in the heart of the contentious immigration debate, as Jack takes on the case of an undocumented immigrant who fled to America to protect her daughter and save herself.
When Julia Rodriguez and her teenage daughter, Beatriz, fled El Salvador, they escaped bloodthirsty gangs, random violence, and Julia’s abusive husband. Arriving in Miami, mother and daughter struggled to carve out their own piece of the American dream. While life in the States is hard, it is safer—until Julia rejects her boss’s unwanted sexual advances. Suddenly, because of an “anonymous” tip to U.S. immigration authorities, she is arrested, locked in detention, and slated for deportation. Julia’s only chance is for Jack to win asylum for his client, an option that’s become nearly impossible in America’s politically charged climate.
When Julia and Beatriz made the perilous trek north to freedom, they thought they’d left the danger behind them. But now even Miami isn’t safe. A ruthless enemy may have tracked them to South Florida and is biding his time, patiently waiting to strike.
The stakes have never been higher, and Jack Swyteck may not be able to save his client—even if he wins her case.Noch keine Bewertungen vorhanden
