A Case of Betrayal by Neil Turner

In his third powerful Tony Valenti Thriller, A Case of Betrayal, author Neil Turner puts his charming and brilliant defense attorney back into the fray, where his loyalties to old friends will be tested against his passion for justice. Diving into tough subjects – from the deeply rooted racism in America to the struggles of single fatherhood – this installment stands out from other thrillers; there is real heart in this prose, as well as nuanced character development that keeps the read continually engaging. The narrative occasionally slips into stilted dialogue, but this formidable police and legal procedural is packed with suspense, and a page turner from the start.
