Synopsis



Acclaimed thriller author Adam Mitzner returns with the gripping tale of a high-profile attorney recovering from a personal tragedy who s drawn back into the courtroom and a media firestorm in the biggest murder trial in a decade.

Dan Sorensen was once a high-powered New York City defense attorney but that was before a horrifying accident killed the two people in his life who meant the most, plunging him into a downward spiral. As he approaches rock bottom, Dan is unexpectedly offered the opportunity of a lifetime: defend an up-and-coming rapper in a murder trial on the front page of every newspaper. Although his client swears he s innocent of the brutal slaying of his pop star girlfriend, proving it will not be easy, especially because he s suspected of bragging about the crime in one of the hottest songs in the country.

Unsure that he s ready to handle such a high-stakes case, Dan realizes that this chance to save a man he believes has been falsely accused of murder just may be his last and only hope to put his own life back on track and achieve redemption for his past sins. But as Dan delves deeper and deeper into the case, he learns that atonement comes at a very steep price.

A powerful and riveting new voice in fiction, Adam Mitzner pulls out all the stops in his follow-up to the highly acclaimed A Conflict of Interest . A Case of Redemption is a gritty, sophisticated thriller that will draw fans of Scott Turow and John Grisham into a world of relentless suspense.

Revue de presse

"A heady combination of Patricia Highsmith and Scott Turow, here’s psychological and legal suspense at its finest. Adam Mitzner’s masterful plotting begins on tiptoe and morphs into a sweaty gallop, with ambiguity of character that shakes your best guesses, and twists that punch you in the gut. This novel packs it. A terrific read!" (Perri O’Shaughnessy)

“Mitzner's assured debut...compares favorably to Presumed Innocent....Mitzner tosses in a number of twists, but his strength lies in his characters and his unflinching depiction of relationships in crisis. This gifted writer should have a long and successful career ahead of him.”  (Publishers Weekly (starred review))

"Pulls you in deeper and deeper . . . It's hard to believe this is Mitzner's first novel. You will not be disappointed." (seattlepi.com)

"More twists than a California cloverleaf interchange." (Bookreporter)

"Adam Mitzner combines the real world insights of an experienced litigator with the imaginative flair of a fine novelist to produce a page-turner with deeply flawed heroes, sympathetic villains, and totally unexpected twists. I loved it" (Alan Dershowitz)

"This noirish tale... is sure to keep you riveted from start to finish." (The New York Observer)
