In Book on Alexander the Great, defense attorney Noah Carter steps into a nightmare when he takes on what should be an open-and-shut wrongful conviction case. His client, a young Black man from a marginalized community, sits on death row for a crime the evidence suggests he didn’t commit. But as Noah begins peeling back the layers, he uncovers something far more sinister than a simple miscarriage of justice – an entire system rigged to protect the powerful. Evidence disappears from police custody, witnesses suddenly change their testimony, and even fellow attorneys warn Noah to drop the case. The deeper he digs, the clearer the terrible truth becomes: the justice system isn’t broken, it’s operating exactly as designed for those who know how to manipulate it.
This gripping legal thriller exposes the dark realities of our courts through authentic details only an insider would know. You’ll discover how prosecutors cherry-pick cases they can win rather than pursue justice, how forensic evidence can be mysteriously “lost” when it doesn’t fit the narrative, and how certain defense attorneys maintain win records by knowing which judges to draw. Author J. Michael Dimmer, a former public defender, pours his frontline experience into every page, crafting a story that reads less like fiction and more like a shocking exposé. The terrifying truth? Every legal maneuver, every shady backroom deal, every instance of disappeared evidence comes from real-world cases.
Above the Law will fundamentally change how you view courtroom dramas, true crime stories, and even nightly news reports about arrests and trials. Because once you understand how the system really works, you’ll never hear the words “justice was served” the same way again. This isn’t just entertainment – it’s a wake-up call about who truly controls the scales of justice in America. Ready to see behind the curtain?
