The Silent Gavel

By L.T. Ryan and Laura Chase

A senior Justice Department official's apparent suicide leaves Alex Hayes with conflicting evidence about a scheme to place corrupt judges on the federal bench. Eleanor Vance may have been trying to expose the operation, or may have helped build it. Alex follows sealed records and concealed payments to establish which account she can trust. The investigation also promises answers about her mother, making every gap in the evidence more difficult to leave alone.
