A Maeve Malloy Mystery
A Maeve Malloy Mystery
By Keenan Powell
The
reading jury has spoken resoundingly in favor of Legal Thriller Deadly Solution and its Alaskan Attorney
Maeve Malloy. Author Keenan Powell has created a stunning force in her Maeve
Malloy character. Danger is ever present as Malloy uncovers powerful players’
secrets and the sinister someone who’s executing a Deadly Solution.
It’s bigger than life when you
head to Alaska, especially the mystery around the Deadly Solution by Keenan Powell. This is no small snowball
scuffle, these characters are fighting for survival in an avalanche of
troubles, and at the bottom of it all is murder. As in so many cities across
America, Anchorage tries to help homeless people and to stop homelessness. Now
it seems that someone has found a deadly solution.
From the very beginning, this
legal thriller finds both the accused and his lawyer, struggling through fierce
personal storms. Perhaps that’s a reflection of the Alaskan backdrop, where the
environment is extreme and inhabitants are wild.
Lawyer and client will need to
find a way to pull together. While fighting her demons, skilled attorney Maeve
Malloy is analyzing and uncovering surprising motives and hidden agendas. Danger
is ever present as she approaches the secrets of powerful players.
Working as Private Investigator
on Maeve’s cases is tall, intense Tom Sinclair who follows through on clues and
uncovers witnesses from surprising and also unsavory places. He’s been behind
her every step, both before and after her controversial decision to leave the
public defender’s office, and as she set up her own practice. During the course
of this investigation, even his loyalty is tested. Will it break?
And after the mystery investigation,
look forward to compelling courtroom scenes. Author Keenan Powell has created a
stunning, powerful force in her Maeve Malloy character. Maeve scouts a trail
through the justice system for clients and readers who yearn for truth. “The
truth is what people believe it to be. The justice system doesn’t deal in
truths, it deals in evidence. The truth doesn’t always leave evidence behind.”
Maeve knows she has to “prove it,” and that will be the challenge of her
lifetime.
The author writes persuasively
and from different perspectives about timely social topics, giving the reader a
thought-provoking thriller that lingers long after the last page is turned.
