A city on edge, a murderer who holds a secret, and an aspiring female lawyer put to the test... When her LA law firm hands junior attorney Rebecca Holt the pro bono case of a convicted felon, her heart sinks. She doesn't want to help murderers go free. But volatile and obsessive Nick Malone is less interested in his parole hearing than telling Rebecca a story. That of the so-called Crescent City Killer who consigned the beaten bodies of several young women to the humid swamps and bayous of Louisiana. Rebecca has no choice but to listen to Malone as he takes her back to the suffocating, sultry heat of New Orleans' sleazy underbelly. A city rife with corruption, the marginalized, and the forgotten, who became the prey. The assistant district attorney at the time headed an incompetent team of losers and has-beens. It was almost as if she was set up to fail. Pursuing her only lead meant making a tough decision with serious consequences. But how does Malone know so much about this killer who stalked the backstreets and jazz bars of The Big Easy, yet left no trace? And when Malone reveals his secrets, will Rebecca be ready to step up and fight for the truth? THAT CARE FORGOT is a totally gripping legal crime thriller set in present-day Los Angeles and 1990s New Orleans. It is the debut novel of former attorney and federal prosecutor James Warren. Look out for his forthcoming PROTECTION RACKET, another crime thriller about a defense lawyer in New York. Free with Kindle Unlimited and available in paperback, if you enjoy fiction by Robert Dugoni, James Chandler, Michael Stagg, and John Grisham, you'll absolutely love this book!
