Multiple 5-stars for The Last Midnight.

One reviewer writes, "It's a first class piece of courtroom fiction from a new author who's been there."

Defense attorney, Gary Wenkle Smith, is a native Californian. He has tried over 200 jury trials, including over 100 murder trials and other serious felonies.

He is active in the recovery community, serving on various boards of agencies committed to helping those who suffer from substance abuse issues and co-occurring disorders.

His stories are created from his relationships with his clients, their lives, and their trials.

His second book, Inside the Lie, is his work in progress.
