Today I’m excited to help spread the word about Jack Jordan’s brilliant-sounding new book, Conviction. It tells the story of a barrister, Neve, who takes on a case defending a man accused of murdering his family, but she’s blackmailed to lose the case or else her own secrets will be revealed and her loved ones will be harmed!
It sounds really intriguing! Read on to find out more about the book…
Synopsis:
TO STEAL A MAN’S FREEDOM ALL IT TAKES IS . . . CONVICTION
Wade Darling stands accused of killing his wife and teenage children as they slept before burning the family home to the ground.
When the case lands on barrister Neve Harper’s desk, she knows it could be the career making case she’s been waiting for. But only if she can prove Wade’s innocence.A matter of days before the case, as Neve is travelling home for the night, she is approached by a man. He tells her she must lose this case or the secret about her own husband’s disappearance will be revealed.
Failing that, he will kill everyone she cares about until she follows orders.
Neve must make a choice – betray every principle she has ever had by putting a potentially innocent man in prison, or risk putting those she loves in mortal danger.

author thoughts on conviction
Janice Hallett: “No one crafts a dilemma quite like Jack Jordan. Conviction is a tour de force of a legal thriller that will have you guessing at every turn and then gasping when the plot inevitably catches you unawares. His characters are beautifully and shockingly flawed yet so vividly drawn you just can’t help investing in them – and if you’re anything like I was, you’ll be swept away on a thrilling ride that starts from the very first page”
Harriet Tyce: ‘Really clever and twisty with a propulsive storyline and a great central character in Neve. If you like a legal thriller you’ll love this!”
Jo Callaghan: “I loved every minute of this thrilling read. It combines the best of Sarah Vaughan and John Grisham: immersive, visual writing with twist after twist turning the screw tighter with every page. Take a bow Jack “jeopardy” Jordan”
Conviction will be released in the UK on 22 June. Pre-order a signed copy from Waterstones.
