Due Process: Burden of Proof (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798242772533)

Justice isn't broken. It's curated.

In Burden of Proof, the tenth installment of the Due Process series, a routine homicide case fractures the legal system from the inside out.

When defense attorney Ana Reyes notices subtle inconsistencies in court records-timestamps that don't align, reports that seem too polished-she begins to suspect that justice isn't merely failing. It's being corrected. Quietly. Systematically.

As an investigative journalist, a patrol officer, a forensic detective, and a data analyst each uncover pieces of the same disturbing pattern, a terrifying truth emerges: guilty men who walk free don't stay free for long-and the blame for their deaths is carefully reassigned to others who can absorb it.

At the center of it all stands a respected police chief who believes he has perfected justice without leaving fingerprints.

But systems built on silence can't survive daylight.

Burden of Proof is a razor-sharp legal thriller about institutional power, manufactured truth, and the terrifying efficiency of a system that decides who deserves to fall-for the greater good.

Relentless, intelligent, and deeply unsettling, this novel asks one haunting question:

What happens when the burden of proof becomes a weapon?
