A fast-paced Scottish legal thriller featuring a defence lawyer, a missing masterpiece, and two cases that refuse to play fair.
Sometimes when the odds are stacked, they just need a little shove.
Robbie Munro has problems.
A long-time client is dead, a priceless painting has vanished, and the people who want it back are not known for their patience. At the same time, a world-famous snooker champion is in court facing match-fixing charges, with the evidence looking painfully convincing.
Both cases promise serious money if Robbie delivers.
He just has to win a trial that has no defence and recover a painting he doesn’t legally own.
With a second baby on the way and pressure building from every direction, Robbie starts cutting corners, making deals, and asking fewer questions than he should.
Because this time, playing it straight might not pay.
And losing is no longer an option.
Fixed Odds is Book 10 in the Robbie Munro Legal Thriller series. Perfect for readers who love John Grisham, Scott Turow, and Michael Connelly.
