About the Author

Now a retired attorney living in the Florida Panhandle, Roberts served as the lead trial attorney for the Louisiana Attorney General's Office in Baton Rouge and also practiced for many years in a private civil law firm. He once flew reconnaissance missions over Russia while stationed in Japan and serving his tour of duty. Books and telling stories have always been a favorite pastime.
The author states this debut novel is totally fictional though told as a memoir. But he allows -- the yellow Mustang convertible is real.

Book Review 2:

"The story continually captivates ... a subdued but enthralling examination of life in and outside a courtroom." -- Kirkus Reviews
