Critiques en avant-premièreTanja Steigner

With a twisty plot, colorful cast of characters, guilt, deception, blackmail, and a body in the wrong grave, Surprise Witness is a head-scratching roller coaster of a legal thriller.

Three men, each for a different reason, come to A. Stein & Associates for help. A series of unexpected revelations from Will McCarty's client draws Will, Miranda Patel, and the other lawyers at the firm deeper into the past. They discover a dark thread, veiled in secrets, connecting these men, all war veterans, to a life-altering encounter in the jungles of Vietnam.

The team of attorneys must uncover the truth of what happened to stave off deportation, financial ruin, political scandal, and a lifetime of regret, sending them on a wild pursuit of the surprising witnesses to it all.

Attorney Miranda Patel, exploring the murky circumstances surrounding the near-fatal head injury inflicted on her former paralegal, Jessica Lane, uncovers a connection between Jessica and the hacking of the National Security Agency. Could Jessica have gone to the dark side? Then, suspicion is cast on others connected with Miranda’s law firm. Miranda and her colleagues have unknowingly found themselves caught in a complex retribution scheme devised by Ed Dante and his childhood friend, Chad Blakely. Long ago, these two men entered judgment and have now begun meting out punishment for past offenses against them, justly so, in their minds, settling scores without bloodshed or violence but with planning, patience, and skill. In the end, justice is done. Miranda and her friends uncover the falsity of the accusations and thwart Ed and Chad’s plans. Or do they? Were the lawyers just pawns all along?
