Monday mornings are hell.
That's what Carolyn Sullivan is thinking as she arrives at her office at the Ventura County Probation Department. One of her probationers has just been arrested for rape.
Just when Carolyn should be lying low, instead she's assigned a sensitive case that's sure to have everyone breathing down her neck—supervising convicted killer and paranoid schizophrenic Daniel Metroix.
Twenty-three years ago, the son of the police chief was pushed into the path of an oncoming car, and Metroix went to prison for the boy's murder. Everything in Metroix's file indicates that he's unpredictable and dangerous. But what's more unsettling is his claim that he's innocent—a claim that crawls under Carolyn's skin and stays there, especially when a routine meeting erupts into an inferno that nearly kills them both. Protecting him is Carolyn's only chance to defend herself and her family—and to right a wrong that may have sent an innocent man to prison, while letting a killer go free.
"A gutsy heroine, a fast-moving plot, an insider's look at the justice system—Sullivan's Law is everything a legal thriller fan could hope for. As always, Nancy Taylor Rosenberg delivers the goods. This will be another bestseller." —Nelson DeMille

"I enjoyed the suspense; there are some areas that don't ring true including her attraction to the professor. I thought she got inside the mind of the "creep element" very well and understand how off the deep end a person can go.I would recommend. "

— Rochelle, 5/28/2012" It was pretty good, but certainly not a book that was hard to put down. I thought I'd try another of Rosenberg's books. Perhaps this one is enough. No more. "

— Sheree, 10/11/2011" Started good, but is difficult to finish. The author makes a lot of assumptions of how the characters/plots are connected. Did not hold my interest & I was happy to be able to move on to something (hopefully) better. "
