Bad Day for Justice (Warren & Carmichael Legal Thrillers, #2)

Two families. One murder. A secret that refuses to stay buried.

One family loses a father to murder, the other sees theirs accused of the crime. Days later, the victim’s son-in-law hijacks a Navy jet and disappears over the Canadian wilderness, leaving behind a trail of unanswered questions. Was it an act of greed, a desperate bid for freedom, or part of a far larger scheme?

The case fractures, the years pass, and the truth slips into legend—until decades later, when fate brings the two families back together. Now law partners Duncan Carmichael and Sydney Warren are drawn into the case that once defined their careers. Each lawyer has a personal history with the families involved—one advised the victim’s daughter, the other defended the accused killer. Together, they reopen a case no one wants revisited.

What begins as a search for justice becomes a dangerous race through Navy bureaucracy, buried evidence, and ruthless criminals still willing to kill to protect a fortune tied to the past. As the clock runs out and prison looms for their client, Carmichael and Warren must decide how much truth the law can bear.

Justice delayed doesn’t always mean justice denied—but sometimes it comes at a devastating cost.
