Publisher's Synopsis
A sensational case. Dark motives. Deadly secrets.
When Judge Samuel Chesterfield is found murdered in his chambers during a high-stakes wrongful death trial against a prominent abortionist, suspicion immediately falls on the only four people who had access: the trial lawyers.
At the center of the storm is Edward Mead-a brilliant, 77-year-old legal scholar still reeling from the death of his wife. Appointed special prosecutor, Mead must navigate a labyrinth of corruption, deceit, and danger that threatens both his mind and his life.
FBI Special Agent Sarah Riehl is desperate to prove herself in a system that's kept her sidelined. But her relentless pursuit of justice leads her into a deadly game where the hunter becomes the hunted-and the truth could get her killed.
Lethal Objection is a gripping legal thriller packed with courtroom intrigue, moral complexity, and page-turning suspense.

★★★★★ It was so engaging that I read it in a day."
"Another intelligent multifaceted plot and complex characters. The book was so engaging that I read it in a day. I usually know who is guilty in advance but not with this book."
★★★★★ Couldn't put it down... terrific twists!"
"Excellent!! I could not put this book down! The twists and turns kept me wondering 'who done it'! The lack of promiscuity and colourful (useless) language was another bonus. This strong storyline didn't need anything but Michael Swiger's great writing!"
