BEYOND DOUBT

Maya Santos has spent her career defending the people the system has already decided to discard. She's good at it. She knows what it costs.Nadia Osei is charged with the first-degree murder of her husband — a single shot, a registered firearm, a marriage of six years that left no marks and no documentation. No police reports. No hospital records. No proof of the fear Nadia says she lived inside for half a decade. Only her word. And a jury that has to decide whether a woman's word is enough.On the other side of the aisle is Daniel Voss — Senior Deputy DA, twelve years of clean convictions, and the last person Maya should be paying this kind of attention to.As the trial moves toward verdict, Maya uncovers something in the evidence that complicates everything she thought she knew about her client, her case, and the line between truth and what can be proven. She is going to have to decide — before the jury does — how much she is willing to risk on what she believes.Beyond Doubt is a novel about fear and love and the distance between them. About what it takes for a woman to be believed. And about the lawyers who fight to make it possible.
