A dark Scottish legal thriller featuring a defence lawyer caught between violent crime, political power, and a case that refuses to stay contained.

If there were no bad people, there’d be no good lawyers.

A missing baby. A doctor facing ruin. A drug dealer accused of murder.

Defence lawyer Robbie Munro is dragged into all three and quickly realises that everything is not quite what it seems.

As Robbie pushes for answers, evidence vanishes, stories shift, and cases that should have nothing in common start to overlap. Soon he is drawn into a net of deceit that reaches far beyond the courtroom. And as it tightens, it’s clear events are being steered from the shadows.  

With his ex-cop father causing chaos, an old flame back in his life, and pressure mounting from every direction, Robbie is forced to make a call: protect himself or keep digging.

Because this time, the truth isn’t just hard to prove—it’s dangerous to uncover.

Sharp Practice is Book 3 in the Robbie Munro Legal Thriller series. Perfect for readers who love John Grisham, Scott Turow, and Michael Connelly.
