About this audiobook
The evidence never lies. But the witness always does.
Claire Ashford built her reputation on twelve consecutive federal convictions and one absolute rule: let the facts lead. When her estranged mother — a beloved grief counselor — is accused of systematically manipulating dying clients out of millions, Claire knows exactly how this case looks. She’s prosecuted people for less.
She takes the case anyway.
Over six weeks in Portland, Maine, Claire does what she does best: she follows the money, interviews the accusers, and builds the architecture of a crime. What she finds is more unsettling than guilt or innocence. The financial patterns are real. So are the gaps. So are the eleven years of silence she has carried like a verdict she was too afraid to read.
