Praise for The Millionaire
Book two in the Maureen Gould legal thriller series will keep you up into the wee smalls! The author, a lawyer herself, invests private attorney Gould, her prosecutor husband Jake, and daughter Quinn (an attorney wannabe) with such authenticity that I feel they are family. I even adore their kitty Germaine Greer.
The court scenes explode as Gould defends Tony Paredes, accused of murdering his former coach Oscar, who raped him at school. Oscar's wife contends Tony is guilty. Senior Prosecutor Vivian Thandie, who has never lost a case, agrees. Gould fights for justice, all the while contending with her own scars as an abuse victim.
I was so gripped as the taut story unspooled that I skipped meals and virtually ignored my husband (sorry, babe).
If you love legal thrillers that are smart, jet-paced, and ring with such truth that you can't put them down, THE MILLIONAIRE is for you. Highly recommended!

Keenan Powell has penned her most memorable heroine to date. Powerful and authentic. Implied Consent is a must read! — Bruce Robert Coffin, award-winning author of the Detective Byron Mysteries
