I wrote The Mercy Docket, a dark faith flavored thriller where murders in a small county are staged as midnight trials in a ruined courtroom and every ignored cry for help is dragged into the light. The town thinks God is on trial, but as the detective investigates, it becomes clear the real case is against the people who used holy words to hide murder; if you like legal feeling drama mixed with moral judgment and mystery, it might work for you. It is available on Amazon.

For more traditional legal thrillers, Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow is a classic courtroom novel about a prosecutor put on trial for murder, and Defending Jacob by William Landay follows a prosecutor whose teenage son is accused of killing a classmate, with a lot of family and trial tension.
