Summary

From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Robert Bailey comes a compelling legal thriller about a lawyer who takes on his sister’s case—and confronts small-town secrets and family skeletons。

Attorney Jason Rich has made a fortune off other people’s bad luck。 His billboard slogan—“In an accident？ Get Rich！”—accosts motorists on highways from Alabama to Florida。 As ambulance chasers go， he’s exceptional。

But after a recent divorce and a stint in rehab， Jason has hit a rough patch。 And things only get worse when his sister， Jana， is accused of her husband’s murder。 Even though Jason has no experience trying criminal cases， Jana begs him to represent her。

Jason has mixed feelings about returning to Lake Guntersville， Alabama—and even more reservations about diving back into his sister’s life。 Between the drugs， the affairs， and a tendency to gaslight everyone in her inner circle， Jana has plenty of enemies in town。

But did Jana hire someone to kill her husband？ Jason isn’t so sure。 He heads back to his hometown to unravel the truth and face off against opponents old and new。

This is my first Robert Bailey legal thriller。 I’m more than halfway through and am enjoying it。Jason Rich is one of those personal injury （PI） attorneys plastering the highways with billboards advertising his services: 1-800-GET RICH。 Tacky maybe， but very effective at bringing in clients。 Jason is rich and famous， but not at all respected。 After all， he settles all his cases and has never spent a day trying a case in court。When his estranged and troubled sister， Jana， is accused of murdering h This is my first Robert Bailey legal thriller。 I’m more than halfway through and am enjoying it。Jason Rich is one of those personal injury （PI） attorneys plastering the highways with billboards advertising his services: 1-800-GET RICH。 Tacky maybe， but very effective at bringing in clients。 Jason is rich and famous， but not at all respected。 After all， he settles all his cases and has never spent a day trying a case in court。When his estranged and troubled sister， Jana， is accused of murdering her husband and the case against her seems “open and shut，” will he take on her defense？ He has every reason not to， including everyone’s advice against it， his lack of experience in criminal matters， his own personal demons， and plain old common sense。 No reasonable， competent attorney with zero experience in court and/or with the criminal law would ever take on a capital murder case。 Then again， family is family and his sister and nieces have no one else。For me， “Rich Blood” did not start off well。 The first three chapters are devoted mostly to backstory about some not very nice people involved in some very questionable situations。 And the prose initially seems wordy and clunky。But I kept going and found that the prose improves and becomes more sure-footed and that the characters grow and acquire depth。 The internal and external conflicts become more interesting and the stakes higher， even urgent， as the story progresses。 And Mr。 Bailey does a good job with the Alabama setting。 I learned things about the state I did not know。All in all， despite something of a rocky start， this is a good entertainment that fans of authors like John Grisham and Scott Turow may very well enjoy。 。。。more

Trouble in Alabama？ Call 1-800-GET-RICH and hang on for dear life; YOUR dear life！Robert Bailey’s new book， “Rich Blood”， is a wild ride filled with all things Alabama: football， fishing， fried food， crazy family and a legal system you won’t believe。 It’s the absurd theater version of “Mississippi Burning”， by Greg Isles; not quite Dukes of Hazard but if they were related， I wouldn’t be surprised。Broken down into 6 sections with 84 chapters and an epilogue， Bailey is the master of short attentio Trouble in Alabama？ Call 1-800-GET-RICH and hang on for dear life; YOUR dear life！Robert Bailey’s new book， “Rich Blood”， is a wild ride filled with all things Alabama: football， fishing， fried food， crazy family and a legal system you won’t believe。 It’s the absurd theater version of “Mississippi Burning”， by Greg Isles; not quite Dukes of Hazard but if they were related， I wouldn’t be surprised。Broken down into 6 sections with 84 chapters and an epilogue， Bailey is the master of short attention span theater that appeals to today’s Tik Tok watching reader。 For me， a more seasoned bibliophile， that aspect makes for a bumpy ride albeit easy to take a comfort break。Bailey is also strong in developing characters and dialogue。 I fully expect to find this book and sequel showing up as an Amazon Original on the Prime Video listing in the not too distant future。 These folks are twisted， emotional， have huge hearts and are colorful to the point of needing warnings for language。 Oh， the Alabama bar association is not going to be very happy should they get wind of the antics going on in Guntersville and the “practice” of Jason Rich， Esq。On the other hand， readers will have a good time， foul language aside， shaking their heads at the bizarre antics， surprisingly well veiled mysteries， and the visit to friendly， small town ‘Bama。 Bless your heart📚 。。。more
