Robin Peguero has written a modern-day 12 Angry Men.”–Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Match and Stay Close“With Prejudice is a fast, entertaining courtroom drama by an author who knows the ins and outs of the justice system.

Peguero’s inside knowledge of the legal system brings an air of authenticity to every page. Highly recommended!”–Scott Turow, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Trial and Presumed Innocent“You will never look at a trial the same. He keeps his thriller hopping with twists and turns that will have you flipping back and rereading.”–Florida Times-Union“With Prejudice is a completely unique, utterly captivating legal thriller. Former prosecutor Robin Peguero’s keen understanding of the justice system–and all its flaws–propels this fast-paced, deeply original novel, leading us into the dark corners of the human mind and heart. The characters are vivid, the storyline compelling, and the writing razor sharp. I tore through it.”–Julia Dahl, author of The Missing Hours, Conviction, Run You Down, and Invisible City“With Prejudice is one of the best legal thrillers I’ve ever read. The story is tense, exciting, and full of twists and turns, with fascinating insights into the intricate workings of the courtroom. But what the author describes is about more than evidence, testimony and legal strategy. It’s a gauntlet where the law is punched, kicked and shaped by people with vastly different agendas. With Prejudice is a deeply human story that reveals all the ways that justice isn’t blind. It sees through many eyes.”–Joe Ide, author of IQ and Smoke
