An abandoned red canoe rests on Seymour Rock, where the Saugatuck River meets Long Island Sound, with the elegantly dressed corpse of a woman inside. Two years after leaving her position at the US Attorney’s Office, Nora Carleton has become lead counsel at Saugatuck Associates, the largest hedge fund globally. The move to Westport, Connecticut, was meant to provide a better environment for her daughter, Sophie, and she enjoys her new colleagues, especially Helen, who recruited her for her investigative skills. However, when Helen is brutally murdered, Nora suspects she may have gotten too close to someone hiding secrets within the firm. Unexpectedly, she becomes the prime suspect in the investigation. To clear her name, Nora enlists her former colleagues, Mafia investigator Benny Dugan and attorney Carmen Garcia, to find the evidence Helen discovered before her death. They uncover that Helen had secrets on every firm member, each with a motive for murder. As Benny interrogates the team, Nora delves into her past at Saugatuck to uncover who set her up. This suspenseful tale of high finance and murder continues the saga of Nora Carleton and her investigative team, showcasing Comey as a bold new talent in the mystery genre.

      James Comey, former FBI Director and New York Times bestselling author of A Higher Loyalty, uses his long career in federal law enforcement to explore issues of justice and fairness in the US justice system. James Comey might best be known as the FBI director that Donald Trump fired in 2017, but he’s had a long, varied career in the law and justice system. He knows better than most just what a force for good the US justice system can be, and how far afield it has strayed during the Trump Presidency. In his much-anticipated follow-up to A Higher Loyalty, Comey uses anecdotes and lessons from his career to show how the federal justice system works. From prosecuting mobsters as an Assistant US Attorney in the Southern District of New York in the 1980s to grappling with the legalities of anti-terrorism work as the Deputy Attorney General in the early 2000s to, of course, his tumultuous stint as FBI director beginning in 2013, Comey shows just how essential it is to pursue the primacy of truth for federal law enforcement. Saving Justice is gracefully written and honestly told, a clarion call for a return to fairness and equity in the law.
