About This Book
On the final day of deliberations in the most explosive murder trial the city has seen, Juror #7 receives an anonymous note that changes everything: "The defendant is innocent. The real killer is in this room." What follows is a locked-room thriller set inside the jury chamber as twelve strangers turn on each other, alliances fracture, and the truth threatens to destroy them all. Justice hangs by a thread and no one in the room is who they seem.
Editorial Review
“A claustrophobic masterpiece. Rivers traps you inside the jury room and never lets you out. The real killer reveal is brilliantly set up and genuinely shocking.”
Perfect for: Readers who love courtroom dramas and locked-room mysteries with ensemble casts.

This book had me hooked from the first page! The story unravels with unexpected twists and a layered mystery that kept me guessing until the end. The characters are complex, and the courtroom drama is intense without feeling overdone. What sets it apart is how it delves into the psychological weight of being on a jury and the moral dilemmas that come with it. If you love crime novels that make you think, this one's for you. Couldn't put it down!
I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. Each chapter was like its own little story building on itself until the climax. I highly recommend this.
