About The Silent Witness : A Trial Against Power by Sara Bander
A locked room. A dead senator. A city trembling in silence.
In a city ruled by power and secrets, the truth doesn’t just hide, it is hunted.
Senator James Harding is found dead in his private office. No prints. No note. No way in, or out. It should’ve ended there.
But it didn’t.
Prosecutor Emma Carter isn’t one to back down. Fierce, brilliant, and unshakably loyal to justice, she takes on the case that could end her career, or expose everything. Her only lead? A man who hasn’t spoken a word in three years.
Jonah Reeve was once a fearless investigative journalist. Until the night a car left him broken and voiceless. But silence doesn’t mean surrender. Jonah remembers. And now, through trembling hands and American Sign Language, he’s ready to tell the story they tried to bury.
As Emma and Jonah unravel a trail of hidden files, whispered threats, and buried witnesses, they discover something more dangerous than a murder: a conspiracy stretching into the highest offices of justice itself.
But some people don’t want the truth uncovered. And they’re willing to kill, again, to keep it quiet.
