Jury of One Author: Children's rights advocate Shelly Trotter is out of her depth in criminal court, defending a teenager accused of killing a cop. And when she discovers that he may be her own son, nothing--not legal ethics, not political pressure--will stop her from keeping him off of death row.

Very good reading. Lots of suspense, drama with a little romance and humor added.
I had been wanting to read a David Ellis book for awhile now. I've always heard good things about his books, so I picked up the book "Jury of One".
The premise of the novel is about a lawyer named Shelly Trotter, who is asked to defend a young 16 year old boy who has been accused of murdering a police officer. She previously helped this young man Alex in a previous case and is shocked to find he's in trouble again.
There is so much going on in this book. So much is revealed, but its done at a pace that isn't overwhelming. David Ellis definitely knows how to keep you turning the pages as this one was hard to put down.
I'm also afraid that if I write anymore, that I may reveal a secret or two, so I will end this review here.
If you enjoy legal thrillers, then I can definitely recommend you read this book.
