The pursuit of the truth might cost one Wyoming lawyer everything…

In the wake of a trial loss and personal upheaval, defense attorney Sam Johnstone is drawn back into the legal fray by an accused drug dealer involved in a fatal fentanyl case.

As Sam ventures deeper into this moral minefield, he uncovers suppressed testimony that could incriminate a former client… and threaten his own career.

From Wall Street Journal bestselling author James Chandler comes the sixth book in the Sam Johnstone legal thriller series; perfect for fans of John Grisham, James Patterson, and C.J. Box.

In the wake of a trial loss and personal upheaval, defense attorney Sam Johnstone is drawn back into the legal fray by an accused drug dealer involved in a fatal fentanyl case in Conflict of Duty by James Chandler. The dealer’s tantalizing offer? Pivotal information that could exonerate the son of Sam’s former partner in exchange for representation. 

As Sam ventures deeper into this moral minefield, he uncovers suppressed testimony that could incriminate a former client and threaten his own career.

Conflict of Duty is a solid legal thriller. I learned some about the courts and trials, as well as a lot about drug addiction and fentanyl. It was a very good story with good characters—some likable, others not so much!

I was a bit disappointed in the ending; it felt a bit unresolved with Sam, but I’m hoping that means there will be more.

I enjoyed reading this book. The author's writing style held my interest and told a good story. I would recommend this book.

I have now read all six of this fascinating and compelling series featuring the troubled alcoholic Sam Johnstone racked with guilt about his army past.

Despite his issues he is a wonderful lawyer quick to seize opportunities and capitalise upon the holes in the prosecution cases.

I so enjoy reading about his exploits and hope that he will find peace and true happiness one day - but I have my doubts.
