Susan Sorella Legal Thriller: Books 1-3
(2026)(A book in the Susan Sorella Mystery series)
An omnibus of novels by Mike Avery
Three impossible cases. One relentless attorney. Justice has never been more dangerous.
Dive into a pulse-pounding trilogy where rookie defense attorney Susan Sorella battles corrupt powerbrokers, tangled conspiracies, and killers hiding in plain sight—all while discovering just how high the cost of the truth can be.
Book 1 – The Cooperating Witness
A law student on the brink of her career is dragged into Boston’s criminal underworld when the mob demands she stop an innocent man from taking the fall for a murder. With a cynical mentor, crooked feds, and a judge hungry for a quick plea blocking her path, Susan risks everything to uncover a conspiracy that could get her killed.
Book 2 – Verdict of Lies
A barroom outburst turns deadly when an umpire is found murdered—and all evidence points to Susan’s volatile client. As bodies pile up from Boston to Tampa, Susan navigates a minefield of mob secrets, buried motives, and a dangerously charming homicide detective. The jury is watching. So is the killer.
Book 3 – Assumed Guilty
When a teenager is caught holding the smoking gun over his own father’s body, the world writes him off as a murderer. Susan won’t. Her search for the truth uncovers a family built on lies—and a mother hiding a secret worth killing for. To save her client, Susan must challenge a justice system determined to convict him before the trial even begins.
Three cases. Three deadly truths. One attorney who refuses to surrender.
Perfect for fans of Scott Turow, John Grisham, and Lisa Scottoline, this boxset delivers nonstop twists, fierce courtroom battles, and a heroine who won’t quit—no matter the odds.
