One Step Too Far: A Legal Thriller

Attorney Sara Jordan has always lived life on the straight and narrow-until a secret affair with her senior law partner altered the course of her life and career. To the surprise of her friends, family, and colleagues, Sara abruptly leaves corporate law and enlists in the United States Marine Corps, where she was assigned the defense of Staff Sergeant John Mendez, who has been charged with a violent sexual assault and attempted murder. The case puts Sara's professionalism to the test and raises questions about her faith in the legal system, ultimately forcing her to ask the ultimate question-could she love someone who is possibly guilty of such a vicious and violent crime? This is a thrilling page-turner from debut novelist Hallie H. McFadden.
