Rezension:
'No one crafts a dilemma quite like Jack Jordan. Conviction is a tour de force of a legal thriller that will have you guessing at every turn and then gasping when the plot inevitably catches you unawares. His characters are beautifully and shockingly flawed yet so vividly drawn you just can't help investing in them - and if you're anything like I was, you'll be swept away on a thrilling ride that starts from the very first page' Janice Hallett
'A masterclass in misdirection. Smart, stylish, taut and twisting. Conviction is Jack Jordan's best yet' Chris Whitaker
'Jack Jordan goes from strength to strength with this expertly written tale of retribution and blackmail. Woven with Jack's trademark moral dilemma, this is a book where the line between good and bad is never as obvious as it seems. Loved it!' Sam Holland
'Verdict is in - Jack Jordan is officially the king of the moral dilemma. Conviction is an edge-of-your-seat thriller that doesn't relent until the very last sentence' Laure Van Rensburg
'Raced through Conviction by the talented Jack Jordan.Tense and fast paced, this is a definite pre-order!' Karen Hamilton
'I loved every minute of this thrilling read. It combines the best of Sarah Vaughan and John Grisham: immersive, visual writing with twist after twist turning the screw tighter with ever page. Take a bow Jack "jeopardy" Jordan' Jo Callaghan
