About Green 61

Justin Cartwright II is a real bastard of a lawyer and he’s not much more attractive as a person. In court, he tends to skate right up to the edge of what’s ethical and is not averse to slipping over if it means winning a case. Anderson Parker is just the opposite; bright, resourceful, and integrity is his middle name. No wonder it’s so satisfying when Parker tells Cartwright, who happens to be his boss, to take his job and… well, you get the picture.

It’s also something like poetic justice when, after the rift, these two attorneys face off on opposite sides of a legal battle in which two young children and an adult man have been killed in a boating accident. We know who’s responsible. What we don’t know is whether they will be brought to justice. With Cartwright’s nasty tactics, and a bungling third party’s lawyer, we’re in suspense right up to the end.

Green 61 is a real “I know it’s late, but I just don’t want to put it down” kind of a book. It’s all the more so because it was written by a successful attorney who knows the legal system inside and out, and is well acquainted with the tactics—savory and less so—of those who work in it. It’s authentic, it’s believable, and it’s absolutely engaging from the first sentence through to the last.

If an intriguing story and spending time inside the heads of real characters is what you’re looking for, you have found it in Green 61.
