Description

After a Sweet Sixteen ceremony, Reyna Clifton - the mother of the birthday girl - is found severely injured at the bottom of the grand staircase of the Regal Phoenix Resort and Spa.

The Clifton family blames the resort for Reyna's fall, and sues for negligence. Daniel Mendoza and his firm are called in to defend the lawsuit, but when Mrs. Clifton is found dead in her hospital room, Daniel's suspicions arise.

With the help of his legal team and a private investigator, Daniel is determined to find out what really happened to Mrs. Clifton. But who would have wanted to murder her, and is there some other foul play involved?

Reviews

  • Family Rivalries

    By Day Lili
    Sweet Sixteen and Qincie parties are still part of the Hispanic culture, costing about the same as a wedding or one year college tuition. This book is an eye- opener for many unaware of the fierce competition to have these coming of age customs. Money can’t buy happiness, and has ruined many lives as clearly depicted in this book

  • May it please the court

    By Dr Trivedi
    Little longish and boring in between but very informative about litigatio cases ,the book end bit hurriedly but overall a thrilling , wellwrtitten work.

  • May it please the court

    By JanePasta
    I liked the main character and his team. I thought the party, the family dynamics, accident and subsequent fallout were more interesting than the legal issues. I did think that the ending was pretty satisfying and wrapped up nicely. I could have done without the side story of the girlfriend as it didn’t really go anywhere? Maybe that’s addressed in the next book? A little bit too legalese and technical for the common man imo. Would be interested to know what people in the justice system thought about that part. But on the whole I did enjoy the read.

  • Engaging

    If you enjoy legal thrillers, you must add Daniel Maldonado to your list of authors to read. I loved the interweaving of Puerto Rico culture, food, and family dynamics into the story. Fun read with unexpected turns.

  • Could not have been more surprised.

    Read from beginning to end in one sitting. Well written with a surprise twist at the end. A must read book.

    I rarely can’t finish a book and I tried but couldn’t go past chapter 10. Boring, nothing thrilling here.

  • May it please the court

    By Lisa993
    No matter how a book starts out, I try to stick it out. This story is told horribly. Way too many irrelevant details. I tried to stick it out and just couldn’t get beyond 6 chapters. I’d fall asleep every time I’d try to read it. Apparently a mystery happens somewhere?

  • Surprising Twist
