About this listen

Ashley Corbin, a former tennis prodigy turned prosecutor, finds herself entangled in a high-profile rape case in the small town of Freeman’s Gate. After the rapist, Daniel Lockhart, is acquitted by a jury, the victim, Sheila Fanning, having lost the protection of the rape exception in the abortion law, is arrested on the courthouse steps for having procured an illegal abortion.

Sensing something suspicious in the timing of Sheila’s arrest, Ashley asks questions she shouldn’t, inadvertently lifting the curtain on an insidious scheme instigated by the governor of the state to rip away the last rights of women to control their reproductive decisions. Ashley’s quest culminates in a final violent confrontation, one that forces her to accept that justice isn’t always achieved by following the rules.

A timely novel, The Last Rights is a legal thriller that delves into the complexities of justice, personal trauma, and societal morality.

This book will make you think and break your heart. It will devaste you and leave you feeling, in this current political environment, like the story is potentially real, possibly familiar, somehow relatable and worrying. And for that reason alone, I recommend it. I cannot say I enjoyed the audiobook but it was a very worthy listen that has left an indelible mark on my mind.

This audiobook was given to me for free at my request and I am voluntarily providing this review.

Very thought provoking and relevant
