Summary
Criminal defence lawyers must make their peace with one harsh fact of life: most of their clients are guilty.
Yet when William Tucker, a celebrated and self-centered star college football player, is suddenly arrested and charged with the brutal rape and murder of a college coed two years before, his broken-down, drunken estranged father, Frank, can't believe he's guilty. What father could?
But Frank is also an ex-criminal defence lawyer. Now Frank must find a way to sober up and save his son from the death penalty sought by an ambitious district attorney. Can a father's love for his accused son save him from death?

Another winner
I have enjoyed the previous books by Mark Giminez with mixed results. This book stands firmly in the excellent category. Well written characters and plot, combined with one of my favourite narrators from the Lee Child books.

If it wasn't for Jeff Harding......
The story is sentimental, moralistic and repetitive, with cardboard characters. Jeff Harding does a professional job, reading with dramatic gusto and enough conviction to carry the listener through to the end.

Enthralling Listen
I was drawn into this book from the beginning. The characters are believable (if not a little eccentric) the story unfolds with touches of humour and held me to the end.
As always Jeff Harding is exceptional in his narration, bringing the story to life.
My favourite author and favourite narrator, my only problem is - I have listened to all the books.
Thank you to both of them!

The Case against William
If you like John Grisham you will like Mark Gimenez books. Well written, good story line and held interest to the last chapter.

Great story provided you love American football
The story is very heavy on American football details at the start, but improves greatly.

Excellent in all respects
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Definately
What other book might you compare The Case Against William to, and why?
One or two of Grishams' have the same basic story line i.e good lawyer goes bad and then good again but that comparison can be made in all gendres after all there are only so many story lines the writers art is making their one individual
Have you listened to any of Jeff Harding’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Many - as usual his performance is superb - a true master of the art.
