ONE MISTAKE COULD COST A YOUNG MAN HIS LIFE. ONE TRUTH COULD DESTROY THE MAN TRYING TO SAVE HIM. IN THIS COURTROOM, JUSTICE ISN'T THE ONLY THING ON TRIAL.

What began as a weekend away with friends turns into a brutal nightmare for Adam Rivera when he’s accused of a killing he swears he didn’t commit. Waking up in a tent with a dead girl and no knowledge of how he got there, his screams bring nearby campers running to investigate, including a lawyer who sees a kid needing help.

When Ben Carter is drawn to a mysterious murder scene, he watches on as authorities quickly take the young man into custody and eventually charge him with first-degree murder. But this is no ordinary defendant, and when Ben agrees to take on the case, he’s unprepared for a revelation that will bring his own past into question.

Now with a personal interest in the matter, and a new client’s life on the line, can he find the missing link before an innocent kid faces the executioner?


The Hour of Guilt is a heart-pounding courtroom drama full of intrigue and deception where the stakes are life and death. Perfect for fans of John Grisham, Michael Connelly, and James Chandler.
