The paperback version of Just Plea is now available on Amazon!

I've also had quite a few people ask whether Just Plea will be available on Audible. The answer is yes, but not for a little while yet. I turned in the final audio manuscript to the publisher last week and it typically takes them 3-4 months to produce it. We can expect it to be released in the early fall with fingers crossed for September. The good news is that George Newbern is back to narrate Nate Shepherd so I'm looking forward to his performance!

Finally, thanks to you, the ebook has shot out of the blocks to the best Nate Shepherd launch ever! It's because of you and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you!

Happy reading!

𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲'𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐲! 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐟𝐢𝐯𝐞, 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐏𝐥𝐞𝐚. 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐬 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤.

A bloody van. A motive. No alibi.

Nate’s next case is not looking great.

Attorney Nate Shepherd’s newest client stands accused of a fatal hit and run. While Nate doesn’t believe that the CEO of Carrefour’s largest charity would ever smash into a person and flee the scene, a blood-streaked van says otherwise.

A free-wheeling prosecutor is certain that Nate’s client did it and more, that the killing wasn’t an accident at all. With help from old friends and an intriguing new one, Nate uncovers incriminating acts, secret relationships, and a massive motive that has him scrambling for answers.

As the case gets worse, Nate fights to craft a defense. But as trial approaches, one risk grows until it looms over everything else:

Will Nate destroy his client’s life by saving his freedom?

Will it be released on audible the same day? I came across Lethal Defense about a month ago when I signed up and just finished False Oath today. Amazing series, it has made my 2.5 hour commute to work 5 days a week much more enjoyable and looking forward to the next one!

False Oath does represent! If someone is fairly well versed in reading legal thrillers, I believe it becomes obvious that the best storytellers are active or former judges and lawyers. That is surely the case here. When Michael Stagg gave up the law to write full time, the courtroom lost a most articulate and talented attorney. However the bright side is that the bar's loss is our gain as devoted readers of the genre. His 5th book is out on the shelves but as an audio book addict I'm holding out for that as George Newbern does a stellar job not often heard. He is in the same rarified air as Dennis Boutsikaris, Edward Herrmann, and Ed Sala. As one reads through his first 4 books, it is good to enjoy the familiarity that comes with taking them in order however they are perfectly fine as stand-alone enjoyment. The twists and turns towards the end are very well crafted and the author ties up loose ends to my satisfaction anyway. Michael Stagg is an excellent legal wordsmith and I highly recommend his offerings.
