April Finnemore è scomparsa. Qualcuno l'ha rapita nel cuore della notte, e l'ultimo ricordo che Theodore Boone ha di lei è la telefonata della sera prima. Perché April si sente sola, e spesso trova conforto dalla sua difficile vita familiare nelle lunghe chiacchierate con lui. Theo, tredicenne avvocato in erba, è sempre pronto a intervenire: ma ora è disposto a rischiare tutto, visto che il rapimento riguarda la sua migliore amica e il sentimento che lo muove è forse qualcosa di più che l'amore per la giustizia. La polizia sembra non avere indizi, finché dalla vita di April non emerge Jack Leeper, un parente evaso di prigione. E nel frattempo dalle acque del fiume viene ripescato un corpo misterioso. Il malvivente è coinvolto nel rapimento? E soprattutto, April è ancora viva? Mai come ora Theodore Boone dovrà sfoderare tutto il proprio coraggio per risolvere il caso più importante della sua giovane carriera, prima che sia troppo tardi.

Mając prawo po swojej stronie, Theo Boone zawsze wychodził obronną ręką z prawniczych kłopotów, zapewniając jednocześnie triumf sprawiedliwości. Ale co robić, gdy prawo ewidentnie wspiera brudne interesy – kontrowersyjną, budzącą wielkie emocje budowę czteropasmowej obwodnicy miasta, która negatywnie odbije się na leżących w jej pobliżu budynkach, szkołach i obiektach użyteczności publicznej? W tej sytuacji sądy nie mają nic do powiedzenia: ostateczna decyzja budowlana leży wyłącznie w rękach wpływowych urzędników. Za obwodnicą są firmy budowlane i transportowe, wpłacające duże kwoty na fundusze wyborcze miejscowych polityków. Do jej zwolenników należy też ojciec Theodore'a, działający w imieniu bogatego dewelopera, planującego zakup 80 hektarów ziemi w pobliżu autostrady. Theo musi znaleźć sposób, aby ocalić przed wywłaszczeniem farmę należącą do ojca szkolnego kolegi. I to sposób zgodny z prawem. Zadanie wydaje się beznadziejne do momentu, gdy Boone natrafia na dokumenty stanowiące niezbity dowód, iż chodzi o przekręt na miliony dolarów... Czyta Marcin Kwaśny.
