Beyond Justice
Book 1 of the Hidden Justice series
352 pages · First published 2017
Attorney Hayden McCarthy accepts a high-profile wrongful-death case involving a young immigrant whose death may connect powerful people to a much larger scandal. Pressure from inside her prestigious Washington law firm makes it increasingly clear that someone expects her to stop asking certain questions. Her investigation brings her alongside Andrew Wesley, whose own work with vulnerable youth gives him a personal stake in the truth. The first Hidden Justice novel combines legal suspense, Washington politics, faith, and romance as Hayden discovers that pursuing justice can threaten the career she worked so hard to build.
