Mixed Verdict
(2026)(The fourth book in the Livvy Mercer Mystery series)
A novel by McKenna Langford and Brett Monk
Two trials. One reluctant witness. A family with a lot more to hide than a body count.
All Livvy Mercer wants is to get through her own testimony without falling apart. Instead, she's the star witness in the murder trial of the man who stalked and nearly killed her, and she can't stop thinking about the girl she passed in the courthouse hallway: nineteen-year-old Marley Clay, accused of murdering her wealthy, camera-ready father.
Everyone else has already decided Marley is guilty. Livvy's gut, and her uncanny gift for reading exactly what people are hiding, says otherwise.
Digging into the Clay family means gate-crashing a private community, facing down a mother who lies without blinking, and falling harder than she ever planned to for FBI agent Garrett Lucas, the one person willing to believe her when it counts.
Then the verdict comes in. The truth comes out. And Livvy learns that justice doesn't always stay where you leave it.
In this addictive fourth Livvy Mercer Mystery, you'll find:
