THE TRUTH ABOUT THE DEVLINS

There are few novels that are part legal thriller, part family saga, part redemption story, and that do it well. This compelling narrative is brought to life by the tremendous Edoardo Ballerini. With gentle authority, Ballerini invites listeners to meet the Devlin family, a seemingly tight unit who work in a family law firm. The story opens with favorite son John calling his brother, TJ, an ex-convict and recovering alcoholic. John is in trouble; he may have killed his client. What follows is an intriguing unwinding of what happened that night and what dangers lurk close by. Listeners will be captivated by Ballerini's performance and will gain additional insights through Scottoline's delivery of her author's note.
