Inhaltsangabe

Joe Turner has defended the guilty, the desperate, and the deeply unwise, but his latest client may be the one case he cannot win. Every piece of evidence says the kid did it, and the evidence is not in the habit of being wrong.

As Joe digs into a gangland killing that feels wrong in ways he cannot explain, the prosecution's case grows heavier by the day. Alongside an oddball investigator who speaks in movie lines and country idioms, he chases the cracks in a story the police stopped questioning too soon. Beneath the gritty streets of West Oakland, a truth buried in someone else's past is quietly waiting to surface.

With a wrongly accused client, a contempt charge, and a judge allergic to justice, the stakes have never been higher. Fans of Michael Connelly or John Grisham will find a wry, deeply felt thriller here, one that swings from laugh-out-loud absurdity to heartbreaking character drama. It is legal suspense with soul.

If you love witty crime fiction with real emotional weight and a murder mystery that keeps you guessing until the final page, this is your next read.

"Good Lookin' delivers a wallop from the first page to the last. Bequette keeps us guessing until the final pages of this extraordinary novel." —Chanticleer Book Reviews
