"At the famously luxurious Serenity Spa & Resort on the Californian coast, guests arrive ready to celebrate what is set to be the wedding of the year. Ginger is an overworked, under-pampered mother of three who's barely holding the family together when she learns a secret about her daughter that could ruin everything. Lulu is a wealthy retiree with four ex-husbands, and a fifth on the way. Emily harbours a dark secret, which she's become expert at forgetting with the help of a bottle of wine. Kate is a powerhouse lawyer with her life in order - except for one little problem that won't go away. Only twenty-four hours later a man is found murdered. All Detective Ramone knows for certain is that these four women sit calmly across from him, offering four very different confessions, each insisting they acted alone. Why would they confess to the same crime? Only they know the answer - and they're not telling." -- from Amazon

Read by Edoardo Ballerini.The Inn at Gloucester stands alone on the rocky shoreline. Its seclusion suits former Boston police detective Bill Robinson, novice owner and innkeeper.

Then Mitchell Cline arrives, with a deadly new way of doing business. His crew of local killers break laws, deal drugs, and bring violence to the doors of the Inn. That's when Robinson realizes, with the help of journalist Susan Solie, that leaving the city is no escape from the reality of evil -- or the responsibility for action. Teaming up with Sheriff Spears and two fearless residents -- Army veteran Nick Jones and groundskeeper Effie Johnson -- Robinson begins a risky defense. The solitary inhabitants of the Inn will have to learn, before time runs out, that their only choice is between standing together -- or dying alone.

Atticus Wentworth Comes of Age: A Young Lawyer Earns His Strips in the Courtroom/ by Beckerman, Roland J.,authour.;
Roland J. Beckerman is an American author and is coming off the success of Seeking Justice, published by Newman Springs Publishing. This book, Atticus Wentworth Comes of Age, was born because it needed to establish who Atticus Wentworth really was and is in Seeking Justice. Even though this is a book of fiction, in retrospect, it is based on facts and events regarding stories that were begging and needed to be told. The life of a lawyer has twists and turns the average person doesn't know about or is never told. And this book opens up so many behind-the-scenes incidents that will not only intrigue but will literally open your mind to the truths of the excitement, negatives and positives, and it will allow you to take a peek into the darker side of what it takes to put a case together in an effort to achieve a win for the client. Even though it is fiction, you must keep in mind it doesn't stray far from actual happenings that put people's lives out in the open, especially in the reality of the courtroom.
